6.2.1930 - 18.12.2016
I had a great deal of affection for this man I did not know, through listening to interviews and in the past his "Thought for the Day" on BBC Radio 4. I feel sad that he has now moved on and removed a bright ray of light from our world.
Farewell. Rest in Peace and have fun wherever you are now. I bet they were glad to see you arrive.
"May the Lord turn his face towards you and give you peace."

For a limited period you can also listen to him reading his own obituary on BBC Radio 4 (lasts 30 minutes):
