Dearest Kristine, Milly, Rosie and Hugh,
Our heart goes out to you at this most difficult time. Sappy was such a generous and caring person who genuinely cared for others before himself. He was a dear friend to us as well as being a very skilled and knowledgeable therapist who helped many people in pain. He had such a great commitment to the well being of others. He will be sorely missed by us and will be remembered as a remarkable person who led by example in his care for others.

Kristine, I’m so sorry to hear the loss of a great guy a husband who we all loved in our own way and that is so great, who can say how he touched so many people just by his words. He was always so willing to help and had a smile for all who spoke to him and he had lots of advice as I took advice from him and when I run, I hear him telling me my faults lol. He always wants people to strive and feel good and that’s what I love about him was his honesty and never judged, I’m so sorry and I’m thinking of you and your children and family. He made a presence for lots of people. Xxx
