From standing at the stone together, sorting oily leads, through paste-up, wax and razor-sharp scalpels, to the vagaries of desktop publishing programs, you’ve always been around to discuss, cajole, castigate, humour and reminisce on print, music, films and life. Now a massive void which cannot be filled – just warm, funny memories and a feeling of huge gratitude for having known you.

Thoughts
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom filled room
Why cry for a soul set free
Miss me a little, but not for long
And not with your head bowed low
Remember the love that once we shared
Miss me, but let me go
For this is a journey we all must take
And each must go alone
It’s all part of the master plan
A step on the road to home
When you are lonely and sick at heart
Go to the friends we know
Laugh at all the things we used to do
Miss me, but let me go

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
