Shona's caption was quite lengthy, therefore an extract from it reads as follows: ''It’s my birthday today and it finally hit me that I will never hear you say “ Happy birthday Sho” again. I miss you so much, dad. You called me “Dup” (Duplicate) growing up coz I looked so much like you. You taught me how to be a man. How to be there for my family. How to protect them & provide for them. You taught me to put GOD first, that JESUS CHRIST is LORD and SAVIOR. When my wife & I renewed our vows you officiated the ceremony. I will forever cherish that moment. I have never met anyone in my entire life that has faced the battles you had. Physically and otherwise.''
Connie Ferguson wrote the following on her Instagram: ''SPECIAL does not even begin to describe you!❤️ We love you Fah, and will miss you dearly. The moments spent with you will forever be entrenched in our memories. Heaven has gained a soldier!🙏🏾 ❤️#RIPPeterHarryFerguson.''
