Re: Kenneth Hargreaves MBE RIP
A fine person, and one of life's gentlemen.
A politican who always put the people he represented, before his own, personal ambition.
The world would be a better place, if we had more like him today.
I sincerely hope he does rest peacfully, knowing the things he did for others, were appreciated.

That says a lot.
About you both.
We'd all benefit, if there was more unity.
Working together, instead of the nasty fighting against each other, we sometimes see in local politics.

And while there is anyone alive who will speak well of them, they live...if only in our hearts.
No that isn't part of the quotation, just my addition to it. I hope you don't mind Guinness.

He should have a plaque in his honour in the town hall.

Such a lovely man, kind and gentle. There was a minutes silence at St Paul's church this morning for him and prayers were said. x
