Every condolence to boys and Rachel from a former House Father. Ted was a compassionate and long-suffering BM! His sensitive perception and insight did much good to many, often discreetly and from afar. I am not the only person to be grateful for renewed telephone contact in the past year. Many of us have the happiest memories of kitchen conversations in the Lodge with Juliet, small children and teenagers! I shall light a candle in the church of Saint Germain aux Auxerrois in Paris today and on each anniversary.
