What an amazingly long, full and rich life! Tributes yesterday from his grandchildren Stephen and Tasha (thousands of miles travelled to honour a very special man) underscore how much Planet Earth will miss this generous soul. The Ghurka Welfare Trust is an excellent choice as a "farewell" charity - typical of the man to choose something so appropriate. Rest in well-deserved peace!

Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away to the next room
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.
Let my name be ever the household word
that it always was.
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.
All, is well.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
