Subject: RE: Pete Clarke - obit
Having just read all of the messages for Pete with a few giggles and quite a few tears we would like to add our message of love and respect to a very special man.
He has spent many a happy hour in our house since his move to Whitby, he was a great font of knowledge on such a wide and diverse number of subjects and had so many tales to tell that there was never a dull moment when he was around.
"The tea-time club is honoured to have had you as a member Pete and will miss you very much"
Our daughter Paula was devestated when we rang her and told her the sad news as she spent quite a few hours (when she should have been working) sat on a bar stool chatting to Pete. She is a crew member on board the Grand Turk now and passed on the news to the Captain and crew who during their winter stay spent time in Pete's company both here and in The Endeavour and they also wish to express their sadness at the passing of such a wondrerful "gentle" man.

God bless Pete and we will all have a port or two in memory of you!
