Even though I am feeling the loss of David's mother today, my thoughts are also with Craig Arnold's family and loved ones. We have been standing vigil over Anne, whose death, though sad, was as it should be; she was 94, had a remarkable life, and was surrounded by those who loved her deeply, I grieve for her.
I didn't know Craig Arnold, but David did, and spoke admiringly of him as a poet with enormous talent and as a delightful individual. I came across this post on Katy Evans-Bush's Baroque in Hackney blog, which captures in a way I can't right now so much of what I'm thinking.

Hey, thanks for that... and my sympathy to David, it is a hard time.
