My dearest friend and brother-in-law ‘Clivey’ has died, and I am saddened beyond belief at the thought that the very special version of happiness, love and strength that this wonderful man gave to our family, and everyone else who knew him, is no longer there for us. We all have the most amazingly lovely memories, …so many social and sporting occasions, the parties and hours spent talking absolutely wonderful nonsense, …what fun we had !? …the tears of joy and the laughter ! …especially yours Clive, ...will be remembered for all time. Life won’t be the same without Clive, but the love we had for him, the lessons we learnt when observing his love of life, the unswerving love and support he had for Carol and his beautiful family, and the smiles on the faces of so many people who were lucky enough to be his friend and spend time in his company, will be his legacy, … a legacy which we will try our best to live up to. I love you and will miss you dreadfully ! Rest in peace, a huge man hug, and thank you for everything that made you ‘Clivey’. Charlesy x
