Leigh,

So awful to read of young ones going so soon. All the best Leigh. I'm sure you have lots of great memories.

As Peter suggests above, John Donne wrote below:

"All mankind is...

... for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee."

Donne's poem is about the idea that people are not isolated from one another, but that mankind is interconnected. With the loss of Brian, and other forum members of late, we're all diminished to a degree.

Diminished, or enriched for having known them?

I think the latter.

Leigh and clan, please accept our most sincere condolences from way around the other side of the planet.

Schtoo and clan.

Thank you to all for the kind words and wishes. I think as we had Brians' funeral at 10 this morning it it fitting to close this thread now. It is heartwarming to see all the replies from "over the sea", many of your "handles/names" are very familiar to me as he used to talk to and show me your handiwork. I will miss him for all time but don't know if I will check in on the forum again. Again thankyou all for the pleasure you brought to the light of my life.
