RiP John and Charlie Powell


I was so shocked to hear of the deaths today of John Powell and his son Charlie. I have known them for about 15 years. John Powell was a man of great generosity - his house, his food, his money was yours - his door was always open.
Charlie I have known since he was 11 - a little rebel - saw him grow up through his teens - even more of a rebel - then he started to work for his dad and calmed down a lot.
They leave behind Barbara (wife and mum) and Clare (daughter and sister) and all the people who loved them and were loved by them.
Charlie - too young, too young. John - keep on trucking.
More stars in the sky.
