Dear friend, your parting is going to leave a great big hole in so many people’s lives.

Your cheeky smile when you said something outrageous or mildy offensive, your cutting yet somehow endearing remarks, your Sid James chuckle, your appetite for fun, your love for all your family & friends, your exquisite company, your intelligent humour and your moments of reflection and thoughtfulness.

All of this I will miss, as will so many others.

We love you friend and miss you dearly.

Good by old chum
