Just want to add a short one, thinking of Clive who was so knowledgable and kind hearted, a real gentleman, helped so many on this site with their research. He went into hospital for an operation and sadly never came out again, what a shock to so many of us on here. He was well known on the Tips and Records boards too, so I'll be duplicating this on there, which I'll make no apologies for. God bless his family at this time. x

I've been thinking of Clive, Joyce & June these past few days. Thank you Romany for starting this thread.

Thanks for reminding us of Clive and others no longer with us, I wonder about Brian with an i, who came back after a stroke and apologised all the time for his grammar etc but did so well to stay in touch, also Pat in Concentric circles, we never found out what happened to her and she was one of the first people to make contact with me on the General boards at the time.
At this nostalgic time of year, many old friends and loved ones come to the front of our minds.

Clive was a lovely man, I still have some very supportive pm's from him.

Thinking of all those that are no longer with us.

Clive responded to my very first thread on GR. A truly gentle man. I didn't 'speak' to the others mentioned but send my thoughts.

Clive was very helpful to me too.

I also remember Gwen, from the old G.C. days who died suddenly one Christmas Day. Just like Clive, she had a great sense of humour, so even in the sadness I remember our friends with a smile.
