Dad's funeral was yesterday and attended by RAFA standard bearer and buglers. He loved his roses, so roses were also a theme. I think he would have thought it a fitting celebration of his life. Thanks to everyone for your kind thoughts and comments. Your donations will be well used by The Play Forum to promote intergenerational play. Best wishes, Rachael, David and Family x

We have been honoured to receive some lovely memories from former students Dad taught. Here are just a few; "His was the only language lesson I truly enjoyed. Whenever I speak French I always think of him. He left an incredible legacy in the minds of so many pupils." "My Condolences David I had to resit French O level and your father helped with extra lessons, thankfully I passed second time . I chose to speak about cycletouring for the aural conversation! They say you never forget a good teacher. Once again my condolences to your family."

Many thanks to everyone!
