Jack Brownless- death of a plantsman March 2010

[David Nicholson]

Not just a toast but a very nice eulogy for Jack at the East Lancs Show yesterday.
Geoff Mawson spoke very warmly about Jack, and how his sense of humour above all else will be missed.
In doing so he recalled a joke Jack had told him.

Jack was thinking about the old days and said:

"I remember the time when you could go into a sweet shop and get gobstoppers, sweet lips and sherbet dabs, and still have coins left in your pocket.

But now, with all these blessed security cameras ..............!"

Thanks Geoff, it made us all laugh, a very fitting tribute to a fine man.

What a lovely way to be remembered-by a laugh and a smile.

Hi all and Dear Maggie for posting the pictures of a very dear friend Jack, I spent so many majical times with Jack and learned so much always with a laugh. A sad day indeed but we will remember the good times. I have just come home and heard Jack had passed away,  cheers Ian the Christie kind.
