I’m not sure where to begin, but Aidan meant so much to so many people. He was clever, not just in a professional capacity, but would always be my first choice partner in any pub quiz. His knowledge spanned banking, politics, sport, geographies, literature, arts, music – you name it, Aidan was able to …

Well what do I say about Aidan that others haven’t already said. As we all knew he was everyone’s friend he was always there for a chat (beer), was always offering advice and was a very open and honest person, always telling you how it was. When I decided to leave Crown Agents last …

You never know who you’re going to get when you hire someone, but I quickly learned that Aidan was one of the best hires I have ever made. Not only did he bring a wealth of knowledge and experience, but he also brought his sense of humour, his practicality, his drive and enthusiasm, and …

You brought light, laughter and happiness into so many lives whom you met whether socially or through the workplace. We first met at Crown Agents …
