Thanks to all of you who have sent condolences it is very much appreciated.

Late last night/early this morning I regretted posting that personal information here as it’s not really the right place for it. However after deciding to delete my post, when I came back on here there were so many kind replies that it would have been rude to remove it and leave those replies stranded. So the post remains.
