I had the honour and pleasure of working with Michael when I was Secretary To The Friends Of Pershore Hospital. I have never met such a lovely, kind, caring man. I can well understand his early background as he was such a clever man.
I am sorry to hear of his passing and acknowledge he really did some wonderful things in his life time.
Rest In Eternal Peace my dear friend.
