We knew Edward from going to the Shoddy Doggie Folk Club in Dewsbury and Cleckheaton Folk Festival and enjoyed many a night at the folk club in his company where he was always very appreciative of everyone's efforts and all there enjoyed his many self penned songs, his guitar playing and presentation of traditional songs in his own inimitable style.

He will be missed by those who knew him and in particular the people in the folk music world that he was part of.

We are,unfortunately, not able to attend the funeral as we would have liked to do to show our respect for the untimely passing of a lovely man, however, we would like to say to Edward's family that we are thinking of you at this very difficult time.

John and Marina
