Departed but not gone. Resting peacefully (for a while) but never forgotten.
I've had a sackful of mail since your passing; a sharing of grief and sorrow.
We all remember your huge voice, of course my ears are still ringing: Your wicked humour and sense of decency: The utter professionalism and personality that inspired so much respect from your friends in music.
The list goes on but the quality that stands out above all others is your enduring generosity. The one thing that we all treasure, the gift you gave us was your kindness.
We all agree you were the kindest man we ever knew.
