I am so sorry to learn of my God Father's death. He was a kind, generous and gentle man and a good friend of my late father. He owned Edmonds of Winchester, a high-end fashion store on the main High St in the period not long after WW2 to the 70's where my father was employed as store manager. I think Roger's father ("Pop"), whose name I forget but whose face remains in my memory, may have founded the store originally. Visiting the store as a child, especially at Christmas(!), is one of the great memories that I will always treasure.
