regular readers will know my life long friend Steve,
he had a heart attack last Saturday, he was rushed to hospital where 3 stents were fitted, on Tuesday he was allowed home and as instructed started making short walks every day, on Friday evening he fell asleep as normal, but he did not wake later in the evening when Kai tried to wake him, despite the efforts of 2 ambulance crews and a cardiac specialist, he could not be revived,
Steve and Kai,
with Diana, in memory of past days, dear friend you will be missed so much by all that had the pleasure of knowing you, R.I.P. We will be staying with Kai for the next 3 - 4 weeks, she can not bear to be in the house alone, as I can not use my telephone to post the blog I will not be posting for the foreseeable future, I hope you understand at this difficult time, when we are back home I will continue to post.

Dear Stanley and Diana-
We are so sorry for Kai and both of you as reading the blog each day, we have enjoyed all the shared experiences including your best friend Steve. We know he will be missed by the team of four you had for so long. I do not like this particular stage in later life as I continue to watch those around me and those I know start to disappear. There is nothing we can do to stop this from happening as the wheels of time continue to march on-with or without us. Memories (and all the blog posts of interaction with Steve) will remain but life for all will change. The moving target of life and time dictate that we are all just visitors here and each of us will disappear at the chosen time. It is a very sad time for all and hope that you, Diana and Kai comfort each other as much as possible.
Again, so sorry to hear this very sad news and especially feel sad for Kai with hopes she can gradually accept his passing and continue on in life to find contentment. Take care and keep us posted as you can.

Well this is some real bad news. We want to express our deepest condolences to Kai, hard to find words. Karl and Mary Ann from Austria
Dear friends, many thanks for your kind words, today is the first time I have looked at the blog, so please excuse my late reply to you both, we are at home today Sunday 2nd. February but when we return to Kai's house tomorrow we will pass on your messages, we will continue to stay with Kai over the next few weeks, it is so upsetting to see her, but we are trying to make her life go on, yesterday she finally admitted that she would like to start a few days a week back at work, that will be the first step to life alone I guess, best regards, and many thanks indeed, Stan and Diana.
Dear Stan
We were desperately sorry to hear your news about Steve. We will always remember when he was here in Scotland with Kai and you and Diana.
Please send Kai our deepest sympathy.
Love to you and Diana
Peter & Wendy
Our most sincere condolences to Kai, and to all of Steve's family, friends, and followers. We have followed your adventures for several years now, and have come to know Steve's and Kai's friendly faces. Such tragic news. We know Kai will find comfort in your and Diana's close friendship and support.
