Oh MB ... I'm so extremely sorry that Mr MB MBE has gone.

You, he and your children will be in my thoughts and heart today, tomorrow and for a very long time. He is inspirational. He has left a huge legacy of honour and bravery that has touched so many people even those, like me, who have never met him.

With love and thoughts xxx

I'm so glad he got to receive his MBE. He was such a lovely guy, and you had a special relationship, that was so obvious from your posts. He handled himself with dignity and courage throughout.

I'm glad you were with him at the end. I will be thinking of you and your children xxx
