In Reply to: There is an obituary for a John Copeman from Sept 11 in Peterbor posted by 48PW [74.176.86.74] on Wednesday, November 17, 2010 at 11:07:13 :
"Mel was a Jack-of-All Trades, a skilled worker, a very smart man with an amazing personality. His humour attracted all those around him and these traits were inherited gratefully by his children. Mel will always be remembered as a generous soul who would help anyone who needed it. He touched many lives."
John had such an had a relentless sort of intensity in his posts. The thoughts just poured out of him, resulting in huge, long paragraphs of comment.
I wondered at times if he felt his days may have been numbered. He shared as one might who wanted to share everything he could.
His passing leaves a big empty space.
