► June Chilton has rung with the sad news that Ian Moir passed away today. Further details will follow. Lesley

► Hi Lesley, I have just heard the news myself, how very very sad, Ian was a lovely lovely man, he will be so sadly missed by all. Love Pauline x (Metcalfe)

► How very sad, I am so sorry. My sincere condolences to his family and friends. Cathy (Harding)

► This is very sad news, what a nice man he was, our deepest sympathies to his friends and family at this very sad time, Shona and Rory (Bettany & Daly)

► I can only repeat what other have said about Ian. Ian was always friendly and helpful to new and old Afghan people and ready for a laugh too. He will be sadly missed our sympathies to all his family and friends. Susan & Clive (Winters)

► Hi Lesley, well its the end of an era at Khonistan. Ian and I spent many happy days with Wally Roy and Ian at Khonistan. The after Blackpool parties were legendary, with the 2 Ian's throwing as many people in the pool as possible .....myself being one of them on many occasions.

Ian had served on the committee of the NAHS for as many years as I can remember, he took on many roles as a steward, dishwasher, raffle ticket seller lol referee and since the untimely death of Ian H, took over as a more than capable treasurer.

Despite Ian's illness he was always happy and smiling and a courageous battler. Indeed at the last Northern show he looked quite well, and was remarkably cheerful despite knowing that this dreadful disease could take its toll sooner rather than later. his passing will leave a huge gap in the lives of people you knew him. I for one will miss him greatly, I never heard Ian have a bad word to say about anyone.

My heartfelt sympathy goes to his wife Anne and daughter Laura.

R.I.P. Ian it was a pleasure and a privilege to have known you. Roz (Livesy)

► Hi Roz. I don't think anyone could have put it better it is certainly an end of an era. Our condolences go to Ian's family. He will be missed. Kind Regards. Liz & Claire (Millward)

► I was so very sorry to learn of Ian's death, a very brave man indeed. He will be much missed by many who knew him. Sylvia. (Evans)

► I am so very sorry to read about Ian, my condolences to Ian's family and friends at this sad time. Hazel (Cranham)

► We are both sorry to hear the sad news of Ian's passing, and his family and friends are in our thoughts. Regards, Rich & Jan (Thompson & Twentyman)

► What very sad news Lesley. Ian has been part of the Northern Afghan scene for so long - and always pleasant and cheerful to all of us at the shows or AGM's. Ian was so much a part of the show scene for the Northern - as of course were Roy, Wally and Ian H., and I can't begin to imagine how much June and the rest of the committee there will miss him. What a very brave man he was to continue working for the club in spite of his illness.

Please pass our sincere condolences to his family, and to all at the Northern. Di and Keith (Searle)

► Hi Roz. What very sad news, as you say Ian looked so well recently at the NAHS still smiling and chatting to everyone he will I'm sure be missed by many people, especially the committee and of course his wife and family who have my thoughts at this time. Jayne x (Edwards)

► Dear Roz, Please pass on my sympathies to Ian's family. What a lovely tribute you gave, to a brave man. Love Mo (Hudson)

► OMG that's awful. Such a nice friendly person. I know he had been in bad health for some some time but what a shock. I really did not expect to read this. I shall miss Ian we always had a some good chats at the shows. PAT (Latimer)

► Hi Roz, it was indeed a shock to hear of the passing of Ian and your note was very apt. He will be sadly missed, as are Roy, Wally and Ian H. They were a great friendly bunch and I always enjoyed our chats and the fun they had when together. An end of an era for the club too, so very sad.

Please pass on my deepest sympathy and condolences to the family. My best regards to the stunned committee too. Hope to see you all soon. LOL. JOHN. (Hope)
