A memorable man

I have just had news of the passing of a friend known as a composer of music and a writer of prose and verse throughout the Salvation Army world. His name was Brindley Boon and at one time we worked together editorially. He had a phenominal memory and a fund of stories from a life-time of service in the Army. I learnt so much from him and enjoyed his huge sense of humour.His legacy of creativity will remain for many years and I am only one of many who are in his debt.

We have a wonderful Service of Thanksgiving for Brindley's life at Croydon Citadel last night.
