To Lydia and all the family
I was shocked and saddened to hear of Clive’s passing.Even though I only got to talk with him occasionally you quickly could see Clive was a vert intelligent, pleasant and engaging man with a wonderful smile. He certainly loved England but I was always impressed how he embraced Canada and the community of Liverpool where he quickly became a valued member volunteering for this cause or that. He was a special person. My sincere condolences to you, Lydia, and all of your family.

Brad and Bex. Sorry to hear of passing of you father. Even though I only met him a couple of times at the football games, the respect between the two of you was evident but not sure if he could distinguish the difference between “footie” and real football.

To Lydia and Family
So sorry I can’t join in with you on Wednesday morning.
I read out the Obituary before the Morning Service last Sunday and made an entry in the Prayer Book..
As you can probably imagine there aren’t many left with any memories of Clive but those of us that do remember have only fond memories of a true gentleman with a lovely wife and family.
You will be in our prayers tomorrow.
Wishing you peace and strength in the days ahead.
