Denis Ferguson R.I.P.

A quick personal note to thank all clients, industry colleagues and friends who expressed sympathy with me in various ways on the death of my father, Denis Ferguson on 21st October 2008. Your support is greatly appreciated.

Dad was very ill for some months and particularly so in the last few weeks of his life, so I suppose we were as prepared as we could be. But nothing prepared me for the overwhelming sadness I felt when he eventually died, or how much I miss him even after just a few short weeks.

That said, I feel lucky to have enjoyed a great relationship with Dad and how long I did have with him, given that he was unusually old when I was born. The fact that he lived to see and know all his five grandchildren was also a bonus. I'm tremendously proud of his many achievements in life and the very positive influence he had on mine.
