Having been diagnosed with a glioblastoma in February, our wonderful Dad- Ian- sadly passed away on 8th June 2020, surrounded by his family at home.

We could not be prouder of the bravery and stoicism with which he faced his illness, and we know that he would want to be remembered in a way that would benefit others. As University of Nottingham alumnus, we know that Dad would have been proud to donate to this research centre.

Our Dad was a much-loved doctor for over 30 years. He served the community at Lee-on-the-Solent as a GP for almost 29 years, and we know that our Dad has helped countless people and their families, often through very difficult times themselves. He was very touched by all of the messages he received from his patients, and we take great comfort in knowing how many people recognised his kindness, patience and dedication to making the world a better place. 

We cannot wait to entertain our children- Rupert, Iris and Poppy- with tales of their wonderful 'Papa Moon' and take them to his favourite places in the south of France, where he and Mum went on holiday every year. Together, we will drink wine, play Scrabble, gaze at the stars, and remember him. 

We will continue to support our chosen cause with various fundraising activities, all of which we will do for our fantastic Dad.

Joe and Milly
