Carol 16th June 2020

On the eve of Clive's funeral, I want to pay tribute to my friend. One of the kindest men I've ever had the privilege of knowing, with that twinkle in his eye which meant you were never quite sure what he was about to get up to, and a smile that lit up the room. After Nick died, I joined the return trip of a canal boat trip that Kennet had organised to celebrate an anniversary. Clive was on that boat, he wrapped me in a virtual blanket that week, gentle words, kind gestures, unobtrusive caring, I'll be forever grateful for that time, it started the healing process for me. So, I'd just like to say that my life and the world we live in, will be the poorer without him in it. Goodnight Clive, God bless. Carol xx
