I travelled with Trent to Darfur and Sudan, with GOAL, two years ago, and we became firm friends thereafter. Trent had wanted me to join him in Kenya in the weeks before his untimely death. I just couldn't make it. He had stories he wanted to tell the world. As a photographer, he had few equals. He loved his camera, the people he photographed, the stories he helped to tell. "A willing guest A gentle host Affection deeply planted, It's strange that those we miss the most Are those we take for granted." (John Betjeman.) Sleep peacefully big man. Too short a life, but full of quality, friendship, professionalism, love, and enthusiasm. Sleep peacefully big man.

My deepest condolences to family and friends of Trent. I did not know him but have been touched by his work and all I have read about him. He sounds a very special and talented young man and I wanted you to know he inspired people beyond his immediate circle - something that I hope gives you lasting comfort and pride. My heart goes out to you all.

Trent....such a tall and handsome man.....I will always remember this when I think of you (mainly because you prompted me to say it every time we met!). You always brought a smile to my face and still do. My thoughts are with you, you will be sadly missed in Galway x

Trent Keegan is the brave symbol of human caring behind whom we complacent cowards hide; we approve of his works and feel \\\"involved\\\".

Hiya Trent, still checking back on you every day. Waiting for news. I've been thinking that you of all people would hate to see everyone you know so sad. It's made me very philosophical... if you can see your loved ones when you die and you see their sorrow,it would make you sad but as in heaven we are supposed to feel no more pain or sadness then how is it possible. So, I've come up with the theory that... from a heavenly perspective all human emotion must look so beautiful, like when we watch a film, a drama, and when you can see the end of the story and know everythings going to turn out fine, you enjoy watching what comes before it all the more. And just like a film, our lives pass so fast that you know you'll be seeing us all so soon and yet here we are treating you're passing as so permanent. Still, these wonderful thoughts don't help all the time and, at times, I get so angry at whoever did this to you and feel powerless to do anything about it, so I revert to my philosphy again for another while and wait for some news...

When Scott told us what happened to Trent we were absolutely shocked and horrified. We only ever saw him over our fence in Chiswick, wearing a big broad smile, with his shirt off and working with Scott or Nicky on their home. We know he was special from all the respect and love that was so obvious from Nicky and Scott. We will remember Trent and his family in our prayers. The Foley Family
