To Ian's children:
Your father was loved, as you can see from these posts. We hope that this will be some comfort to you in the time of your loss. You are in our prayers.

Sad news indeed. Ian was a thoroughly good guy, quite apart from being a talented songwriter.

I thought it would be a loving gesture if we all did our part to keep Ian's music alive by each of us doing one or more of his songs. I can't read music but, if somebody will give me a chord progression, I will contribute my interpretation.
Just thinking aloud - this is the most forum space that ANY death has devoted to ANYONE! That speaks volumes about the love that we all felt toward Ian.

Not a bad idea at all. Can you or anyone post a link to his list of songs - if available online?

Here's my original tune I titled "Ottawa Is Blue (Tonight)" It's nearly 5 minutes long so I can cut/paste another few instruments in very gladly. If anybody wants to add-in then I'll blow a hole in the middle somewhere. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=1209254&content=musicIt's the top song on the list.

What are we, Ian's friends, going to do about a wee obituary notice? I'm in for US$5.00! Just tell me where to send it.

Don, I am waiting for Ian’s co-writer to contact me. I’m sure he is waiting for Ian’s family to contact him. I don’t want to bother him, he is very reliable, and I’m sure he doesn’t want to pester the family.
If I remember correctly Ian’s family is spread between Canada’s east and west coasts and parts in-between. For all I know he may be buried in some other area in Canada and/or it is taking sometime to contact the family and plan a proper funeral.
Also there may have been a listing in another paper. I don’t know for sure.

Ian is in paradise now. He's happy that we all loved and appreciated him. I'll miss his smiling face and the music he put out. Have a great trip home Ian. Some of us will see you soon.

Update: Ian’s family will be visiting this site to view the comments so I wanted to bump this up to the top of the list. Lets keep bumping this so they will have easy access to all of the wonderful comments made by us, his friends.
Thanx

Between us, his many friends, we can bump this up to where "Curiosity" is exploring on the Red Planet. I doubt seriously if Dr. Gannon would/will object.

For Ian’s family;
An explanation of the term “bump” simply means the people on the forum are making sure the discussion about how much we thought of Ian remains high on the list of topics on the front page. Each comment pushes it back toward the top.
Ian was our friend. We will miss him.
