While we silently still lament the great gorge in our hearts, torn thus by the realisation that you had left us, there are so many reminders, glimmer of you, your being and the vast ocean of fields of interest and experimentation.
Your legacy moves forward in a plethora of minds that you touched, inspired and awe.
Young and old alike, as was your patience and eagerness to traverse all subjects.
You always felt that regardless of age or intellect, both teacher and student learnt and gained from every discussion, you knew just the interchange of thoughts and ideas could spark the key to unlocking parts of the great puzzles.
The treasure firmly placed in the souls of so many of us, was one of the many priceless gifts you gave.
I am, as I know are the others lucky enough to have known you, eternally grateful and just as cleaved by the blow, struck by your loss, today as I was 12 years ago, I've just learned to bleed quietly.
Ever yours in heart and mind, my greatest love, friend and ally, my green knight.
XOXO
