To Dom,
I’m stunned and saddened to be saying goodbye to you today.
Dom you were truly one of a kind.
I’ll miss our chats when we put the world to rights, politics and journalism our favourite targets. I’ll miss us joking about bad journalism… who do I send examples to now? I’ll miss your singing. I’ll miss us discussing lunch… or any meal for that matter. I’ll miss your strange combinations for lunch.. Yoghurt AND beetroot?? I’ll miss your distinct WAY OF speaking ON the PHONE… I’ll miss our discussions on love… on Hazel… on setting up our podcasting business… we SO should have got round to that! I’ll miss the fact that everytime you did a serious voice…it turned into a Yorkshire accent. I’ll miss discussing the plots to our novels… would we every get around to starting them?
You are one of the nicest, most intelligent, funny, geniune people I know. Let’s be honest you are also one of weirdest… but that made you also one of the coolest.
Here’s to the coolest person I know!
I’ll miss all these things about you… but most of all I will miss you.
My friend.
Rest In Peace.
Don’t be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or a lifetime, is certain for those who are friends.

Hey Cliff
That’s really lovely. Life is empty without him.
