BARRY ALBIN-DYER OBE

That this House congratulates Barry Albin-Dyer OBE of Bermondsey on reaching his 60th birthday; pays tribute to him for his lifetime of service in countless ways to individuals, families and organisations in his own community, more widely across south-east London and in recent years increasingly in other parts of Britain and abroad; congratulates him and his family on the work done by the family firm F.A. Albin Sons since its foundation over 200 years ago; gives special recognition to the difficult and nationally important work done by Barry Albin-Dyer and his firm in supporting families of those killed in action in Her Majesty's armed forces and bringing home with dignity and honour the bodies of the fallen, first to Bermondsey and then to their homes throughout the world; and wishes Barry, his two sons Jonathan and Simon, his grandchildren and all the wider family the very best of health and success in the many years which this House sincerely hopes will remain to Barry Albin-Dyer in the community he loves and where he is so much loved and appreciated.
