VALE

Post by Brenda Joy » Fri Feb 13, 2015 11:16 am

Just letting you all know that Jan Morris lost her husband Cliff this morning.
Jan as you know, is a tireless worker for bush poetry through the Tamworth Poetry Reading Group and Cliff has supported her all the way. Condolences have been sent on behalf of the ABPA but if anyone wishes to send personal sympathy notes, Jan's email is <janmorris33@bigpond.com>
In poetry

Cliff Hathway was a true gentleman that help start the Tamworth Poetry Reading Group along with maureen Quickenden back in the early 1980's
Cliff along with his family worked in the poultry industry around the Tamworth area and knew all of the local bush poets over a thirty year span.
Cliff would recite poems at the monthly poets gathering at tamworth and attend reunions to celebrate the love of australian bush poetry.

A little late in coming but our thoughts are of Jan and always appreciated the hard yards her and Cliff put into Tamworth.

Merv, Chris, Terry,
My posting re Cliff was on 17th February. However, Jan is still in mourning and I am sure that she would appreciate any contact that you feel like making to help her through the on-going months of sorrow.

Now we have the sad news of Milton's passing. I'm too much in tears to write anything worthy of a tribute to him -- he was well loved by so many including me.
