The obituary notice of Stuart Paul PERKS

I am so shocked to read this. I knew Stuart in Japan. I remember I recieved a phone call from him two days after my arrival in Naie Hokkaido. He was posted at Iwamizawa Hokkaido. He was kind, funny and we had fun together exploring nearby towns. Sometimes he would invite me over for his amazing Indian curry. We kept in touch for a while but then lost touch. RIP Stuart. Condolences to his family. Rosalba Politi , Alberta Canada.

You are missed dear friend

This year I lost this very great friend of mine, it all just seems too hard to believe. He was one of those positive people you could ever meet in your life, a person that would support you unconditionally. I miss his beautiful soul and I miss him even more. 💔💔💔 this all brings me back in tears when I remember that you are gone and we didn't get the chance to say goodbye.
But, I would say that:

It's okay to miss you,
It's okay to cry.
Just know I'll never forget you.
This isn't a permanent goodbye.
Sometimes I sit and wonder
If you are standing by my side,
Giving me the courage
To carry on with pride.
I'll hold onto our memories,
Until this life is done.
In my heart is where I'll store them,
Where we can be as one.

Dear Stuart,
I'm forever thankful that we met.

Rest in Peace dear friend. 💔

Rest in peace Stuart . Thoughts with his family at this sad time x

Stu Paul I really enjoyed our conversations. I never met you but viewed you as a friend. RIP xx

Stu, I miss you a lot. You are a very special friend. Our reunion after 10 years were short but the best. You make me smile when you go pass my fish tank office, always pulling a funny face. I miss the lunch times we had. We have so much fun talking about our travels and how we should do our taxes. The morning hugs, got us both though many difficult teaching days. I was waiting for you to come visit me in Korea and go to Japan together. Wherever I go, wherever I visit, whatever I see and whatever I experience, you will be in my heart. I will make sure I get on that cruise you planned for me, I will go to south Africa for you. Sleep well, and wait for me in the sky. I love you my special friend.

Love you Stu. Loved your huge, generous, kind heart. Always put a smile on my face and I’m going to miss you tremendously

Stuart thank you for being the one that would never let me off the hook for my phone shenanigans of my youth. We love and miss you.
