Dear Shirley and Lynley, Steve and I were so shocked and saddened to learn of Bram's death. He was a very special man, who lived a rich and full life. We remember so fondly our time with you - Bram's garden, his rug, his stories. You all made us a part of your family, and we treasure your friendship. We will keep you all in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Shirley & Family,
I was shocked to learn of Bram's death via Grace (Bringans) this morning on Skype.
I think of you often and the times we had in London at Christmas 1965.
I will give you a ring when Grace advises me of your telephone number.
With love and prayers and may God surround you in His embrace.

A lovely man. He was one of my favourite hospital specialists when I was growing up. He saw past my disabilities to who I really was. We found common ground and respect for each other. We laughed a lot, and after every appointment he'd put his hand in his pocket to give me a coin to buy myself a drink from the hospital vending machine.
I was very sad to learn that he had died.
My sympathy to his family.

Thinking of Shirley and family in your very sad loss. Bram was a lovely, Godly man who always took interest in others. At George's funeral last week he gave me a hug and asked how John was doing. He will be missed by many. Sending sincere sympathy and love. Beverley
