Dear Dad,
Next May will be 10 years since you have been gone. I just only turned thirteen when you passed and today is my first time reading these condolences. They are beautiful and I have gotten to see a lot more sides of you than I knew you had.
Now that I am getting older and soon graduating from my program I think about all the things I have accomplished and all the things ahead of me. I wish you could be there for all of them. I hope you would be proud of me.
I love you so much and not a day goes by that I don’t think about you and miss you.
Love,
Candice

I am sure Ivan was a wonderful family man, full of fun. I can't remember meeting him although it might have been once so many years ago. I will say that for the Inkpens that I have met over the years, you are such a wonderful and close family. Ambrose and Eva are the strongholds in this family and keep it together like some unknown glue. I know Ambrose Inkpen as a man who is so dedicated to his family and life, and has such a strong spiritual outlook. All these attributes were part of what made up Ivan, I am sure. Although your life was short, I am sure it was full .God bless Ivan's wife and family. Sincerely, Wayne Gould.

My deepest condolences to the Inkpen family. I will never forget Ivan. Many of my favorite childhood memories growing up in Ship Cove Involved Ivan. Weather it was playing softball, snowmobiling, hanging out with a group or just getting into general devilment...Ivan could always be counted on for a good laugh! Upon hearing of his death, I have felt that a part of me, has also died. Good bye old friend. Fate has taken you long before your time! Rest in peace.

Dear Ivan, I can remember all of us as kids growing up together and going through every grade through primary school, both yourself and Barry, right up through high school. Even having lunch at your house sometimes when we were at Sheen's Hill Elementary. So many memories are going through my mind right now. It is so sad to know that you are gone. Rest in peace, my dear friend.

Life is fragile, lost in an instance. Memories preserve life. Ivan you will never be forgotten. We spoke last Tuesday and as you did many times with your deep voice and laughter called me "Sheep Herder" a nickname you gave me when we were younger. Mom or Dad would send me out to get you guys back home for meal and bed times. You would tell the others here comes the "Sheep Herder". It's now your time to watch over the flock "bro" it is your time as you are in a far far better place than I.
Your Brother,
John

It is with great sadness that I send my condolences to the much loved Inkpen family at Ivans passing. Ivan rests in God's light and love. It was a blessing to have the opportunity to meet and spend some time with Ivan.

May God Bless Hank, Eva, my much loved sisters, brother in law, Alison, Candice and Samantha with strength and love.I hold you all in my heart. Much love to you all.

It was with great sadness that we heard of Ivan's passing. As with anyone who met Ivan he left a lasting impression. Much sympathy goes out to all of his family especially Candice and Samantha of whom he spoke so often. He was so proud of them. Having spent many years going back and forth to our uncle's, Kevin Cheeseman, with our mother, Anita, every trip was always filled with a constant tormenting from Ivan. But we always said if Ivan didn't torment you, he didn't like you and there weren't many people he didn't like. My sister Shellie lives in Montreal and it was with a heavy heart that I called her to tell her of Ivan's passing. She said that going to Burin was not going to be the same knowing Ivan wouldn't be there to torment us. Again, we want you to know that we are thinking of you at this difficult time.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all with Ivan's passing. I spent alot of time working with Ivan at the Marshalling Yard in Argentia. He always spoke fondly of his family especially his daughters,. They were his pride and joy. He was a thoughtful man whether he was bringing me sour candy or calling one Saturday to make sure I made to my Grandmothers in Mortier after a rainy highway trip up the Peninsula. My heart also goes out to Gary Cheeseman who must also be devastated at Ivan's passing.

It is with a heavy heart that I send the Inkpen family especially Candice and Samantha my sincere condolences. I worked with Ivan in Argentia and we became good friends very fast. There wasn't a day that would go by where he didn't make me laugh especially if he knew I was feeling down, he always knew what to say to cheer me up. Ivan I will always remember your laugh, your smile and your personality. You will always be fondly remember but sadly missed. You were and always will be true and special friend.

It is with a very heavy heart that I send you my condolences. I can't express how deeply saddened I am by Ivan's passing. He has been a part of my life and my heart for so long. So many times throughout the years we have met up or talked on the phone or I heard a song or some event reminded me of him and I would smile and then wish life could've been different. He was so proud of his two girls when he would talk about them or when he introduced them to me. He was always so good with kids and got such a kick out of them. I always knew he would be a great Dad. I will forever remember his laugh, his smile and his huge hugs. Another wonderful person taken way too soon. I pray for you Mr. and Mrs. Inkpen, and for his two beautiful girls. I know if there is a way he will be watching over you until you are all with him again. God bless all of you. Much love to you Ivan, rest in peace!

To the entire Inkpen family,
My sincerest condolences on the passing of your beloved Ivan.
He was such a joy to be around and I was honoured to call him friend. Although I left Burin over 25 years ago, we never failed to connect when we were both at home at the same time. My daughter, Holly, does not have many memories of Burin outside of family gatherings but the few she does have include Ivan. He always made an impression!
May you rest in peace my friend, someday we will laugh again together.
Thinking and praying for your family for continued strength...
Love,
JoAnne Brenton
