2. Adrian taught me so many life skills as a scout which have carried me through life. He showed me how fun it was to be outdoors and socialise with people of all different ages and backgrounds. Will never forgot how many times he made me laugh. He was an amazing leader and person and will be dearly missed.

6. Dear Doug, Jane and Neil.
   Our thoughts and prayers are with you always

   We can shed tears that he is gone,
   Or we can smile because he lived.
   We can close our eyes,
   And pray that he’ll come back.
   Or we can open our eyes,
   And see what he has left.
   Love lives on, he may be gone,
   But will never be forgotten.
   Love Peter and Sharen

8. Dear Adrian,

   You were always there to cheer people up no matter what you were going through. You left the biggest mark on every person you ever met and will be missed by all who knew you. We only carry the happiest memories, there was never a dull moment with you in by our sides. I wish I could spend the rest of my waking moments with you in my corner, to cheer you up and guide you through this life and to give back everything you gave to others. Your life was what you made it and that was everything you could. You were never afraid to go on the wildest adventures and experience everything life had to offer. You never deserved those bad times you had to go through but even in sadness you had the biggest fight in you and I’ll always admire that. Even after everything we’ve been through, you always called me a friend and I’m glad we never lost that bond. Just know that your loss has brought even the most drifted friendships back together, just like you always wanted. I’ll hold you in my heart for the rest of my life, my love will never die and all your life advice will always stick. I miss you Adrian thank you for everything.

   Dear Doug, Jane and Neil

   Thank you for raising the most beautiful person I’ve ever met. You would move mountains to keep him in good spirits and I think everyone will know what an impact this will have on the family. I’m truely sorry for losing such an amazing son and brother. He always spoke highly of his family, always proud to be a Phipps. I know he shaped this family into what it is today, always caring for his beautiful mother, always proud of his father and always a role model and best friend to his younger brother. My love goes out to everyone experiencing this grief but most of all my thoughts are with you. Thank you for being more than everything you could be for him and everyone you met
