Dear Lyn and Family,
We were so sorry to hear of Bevan's passing, and were touched to know you wanted us to hear of it. Distance makes things like this difficult, but just know how much we love and care you for you all, and feel your pain.
You guys were our example of young love and devotion to one another. We got engaged at 17 and 19 yrs old because you showed us we could.
We have wonderful memories of when you and friends came and camped in my parents backyard in the summer of 1973/74, and of other visits through the next many years.
Good friends are truly forever.
We love you and pray for your comfort.

Bevan always had a smile on his face and always took time to have a chat. I will miss seeing him on the ward and through the hospital corridors. He will be missed by many. Thinking of you all during this sad time. Xx
