Our Special thanks go to Fr. Philip Dyson for his support and for conducting such a lovely service and Jane Cotton for her kindness and thoughtfulness in arranging the funeral. Also for the many cards and messages of sympathy received, they were much appreciated and very welcome at a very difficult time. A big thank you to everyone who generously donated to the Cancer Research UK Fund.

Our sincere thanks to Dr. Crellin and Dr. Slater who gave Cliff a quality of life through to the end, and to the nursing staff at the Winterbourne Hospital who looked after him so lovingly.

Our love and grateful thanks go to all of you.
