Thoughts
A remarkable uncle, family man, renowned letter writer and Ingledene chronicler. Always happy to chat, he was an all round good egg of whom we were very proud. No one could have had a better uncle, great-uncle, great-great uncle, the Woodstock Wizard.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
