Brian George Lowther passed away on the 9th of October 2012 at 7.45am , at Rockingham hospital after his 13 month battle with pancreatic cancer
They say its a beautiful journey
From the old world to the new
One day I'll climb the staircase
To lead me back to you
And when we reach the garden
Where we all are free from pain
I'll wrap my arms around you
And we'll never part again.

From all who love you , we will miss you forever

This year I was plan to send Christmas& New year greetings to Brian. I go through "Google" to find contact details.Unexpectly found that Brian passed away on 09-10-2012 from Western austrlia museum website.

I shocked and saddened to hear of your husband's death .Mr.Brian lowther was kind and geniue person.Words alone cannot express my sympathy on the death of your beloved husband with cancer.

He was such a distinguished man and had such a pleasing personality. He was so much fun to be around and I missed his great wit and charm.

My deepest sympathy is with you and your family at this very sad and difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Through museum website I knew your family history.It,s very intersting and like nice historical tale.I,ll keep on touch with your family forever.
