I have been grateful for him in 40 years as a priest - and yes I have tried always to take his understanding of (especially) the Synoptic gospels with me into the pulpit. I wish I had thought to google him before his death - his blogs sounjd just like the Kelham days! Thank God for his life. Condolences to his family and friends. And a prayer that he may rest in peace.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-69628731271958604742012-02-25T13:18:06.933-05:002012-02-25T13:18:06.933-05:00I can see Simon before me clear as day when I read...I can see Simon before me clear as day when I read this poem, Mark.
