    This is so sad. He was part of the La Lande restoration team. My Mother and I used to restore old buildings together, and when she passed away all our trades guys were her pall- bearers… electrician, decorator etc. This was important to me because we were all part of an integral team. Ian is part of the chateau’s long history. ❤

    What a heartbreaking pair of back to back losses. Rest in power, dear Ian. It was easy to see how kind and loving a human you were because your eyes truly were the window to your soul. Prayers and love to your fiance family and friends. I also send my love and prayers to Amory and Natty. It’s so tough to lose a beloved fur baby companion and they had just been reunited. Much love and healing to all. This episode was gutting to watch. Good on you to focus on the painting of the tower. The blue was an uplifting sight, and Ian would approve. All my love from across the pond!

    I am so saddened to here of Ian's passing. From the first time I saw him on your vlog I was attracted to his lovely smile and sparkling eyes. He definitely had something special about him. I will most certainly be praying for Ian, his family, and all who are mourning his loss. May he rest in peace. 🙏❤😢

    This is so sad. I do firmly believe every one who knew Ian and his family will derive solace from being able to see him and hear him again any time they want at a mouse click; to see him laughing and happy will be a tremendous comfort. Again, I am so sorry for your loss and hope that a place for a memorial plaque will be found in the chapel when it is done. Deepest condolences to you all💔

    I remember this one video of all of the Ian’s sitting outside at a table having a little coffee break and *I think* Stephanie brought them a treat to go with their coffee. They were working on either Nati’s apartment or Steph’s study. So sorry for his family, friends, and everyone who knew him. Hopefully they can find comfort in their memories. ❤

    I understand Lisa's concern about forgetting. My fiance' died in as the result of an accident 12 years ago this 22 August. I can bring her face always, and her voice most times. I'm losing her most delightful laugh, that lit up everyone who heard her. I lost her scent at some point. I have a large bottle of her perfume she'd left at my house, but it's getting old. She smelled like lilies, cigarettes, and her. I just can't bring it like I used to be able to. I was just going back through time at LaLande and ran across this video. I probably could have skipped this, but I always remember her this time of year. She was the most generous, kind and funny person.

    I'm so sorry for your loss. I loved seeing Ian on the vlogs. He was such a kind, sweet man and he will truly be missed. Even though us viewers didn't know him well, he still made an impression on us. May he rest in peace.
    After such sad news, it was nice to see Dan's smiling face, and to hear the laughter in your voice. At times like these, its nice to try to find something to smile and find joy in.
