Tributes
  1. Alistair – You were a valued colleague, confidant and friend over more than 50 years. You were always interested in people, perceptive, decisive and successful in your working life. Away from work your love of cricket, music, literature, and all the games played with the oval ball soon showed up. You will be remembered well by many people in the energy business whose career development you played a big part in.
    You lived a good life, positive till the last. Fondly remembered
