Kellie, I want to send my deepest condolences. My years in Phnom Penh pretty much revolved around the FCC, and Ant was always a larger-than-life presence, and a big factor in my memories there. And you both seemed so happy in Yangon at his 50th.
54 is way too young. I am so sorry for you and your boys. Wishing you strength in this terrible time.

Dear Kellianne
We were deeply grieved when we heard the news about Ant. So hard to believe and we are saddened by this sudden and tragic turn of events your lives are now all taking.
If I think about him, I see that twinkle in his eyes he would get when he was doing something a bit naughty. I have such fond memories of events that we all shared together in Phnom Penh and especially our connection about Koh Samui.
Ant was a man who had enormous passion and enthusiasm for life, who was funny, witty, generous, busy and always seeing opportunities.
Our thoughts are with you, Jake. Ollie and Zac as you all grieve and learn to make adjustments in your lives.
We are sure there will be wonderful moments of celebration over the next few weeks and hopefully these are comforting for you all.
Losing your soul mate is a big mountain to climb - may you be strong and determined and feel the love many of us out here are sending you.
kindest wishes
