May I through your excellent page thank and congratulate your contributor Paul Foley for the sterling work he puts into following
in the footsteps of Terry Freestone in ensuring that the valued contributions of former colleagues are not lost when they pass on.
The incredibly deep research shown to achieve this is in itself quite outstanding.
I greatly admire this and ask that he be acknowledged for taking on a task that few of us may be prepared to do.
We are indeed most fortunate to have the pen of Paul Foley taking us forward at what can be distressing times when
the loss of former comrades is wounding. Graham Hoskins.

Crossing the Bar
Alfred Lord Tennyson, 1809 - 1892

1. Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
2. But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
3. Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
4. For tho’ from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have cross’d the bar.
 
 
YOUR VOICES HAVE BEEN SILENCED BUT YOUR MEMORY WILL LIVE ON
