Celebrating people

We are all part of the web of life on this planet but at the same time each of us is an element of creation that is eternally unique. This section is dedicated to some people who have made a difference through their ideas, dedication, service and even the fun that they have brought to life (to which the crew of Cloward’s Way raise a glass).

In particular, it contains a summary of the achievements of two men who, in their different ways are significant to both our family and to others who knew them through their achievement: Norman Wainwright and Horace Ellis.

The Renewable Way has always included the ideas and contributions of others and I am particularly proud of the fact that there are two books that the authors have chosen to publish here: Rik Denton’s exciting historical novel ‘The Shimmering Sky’ and John Lakin’s collection of humorous “Plod” tales.

Finally, there are some notes are about the person who has to take responsibility for all the imperfections within these pages: the editor

· Norman Wainwright - tributes to an inspirational athlete and person

· Horace Ellis – a Bomber Pilot killed in action in 1942

· The Shimmering Sky – an historical novel by Rik Denton

· John Lakin - The humour of "Plod"

· Some notes about the Editor of The Renewable Way
