The obituary notice of Andrew Jonathan BRIERLEY

Already five months on and I miss you my friend. Twenty three years of witty banter, laughter, listening ears and mutually supportive messages, kindness and chats that ranged from the sublime to the ridiculous! The usual msgs over Christmas and New Year were our last and I only knew when my usual birthday message didn’t arrive. So glad to have been classed in your ‘upper echelon of friends’ Andy. Your erstwhile quote from an old film ‘ I think I’ll think of you for the rest of my life Annie’ stays with me, and all I can say is ‘Ditto Mr B’. Remembered with deepest affection always. Your dear friend Annie …alias Barbara Good! x

Andrew, my cousin, was a remarkable, talented, intellectual and lovely person. I am sad that we shared so much and so little time together. Our days together in Andrew’s car trapsing over the moors and visiting our family heritage was wonderful and so special. We shared much, laughed and chatted for two days. Cherished memories not to be repeated sadly. R.I.P sweet cousin. X
