A sad week

This week the world lost two people who I was proud and privileged to consider my friends. It seems surreal to me to be writing this as I still can't really believe it. One minute they were here, the next the were gone. I feel their loss in my guts but not yet in my head. Chris and Matt were wonderful men of God, full of humility, patience, humour and well-placed irreverence. The world is a sadder place without them but heaven had better watch out. Never have I known two people capable of causing absolute mayhem whilst looking as though butter wouldn't melt! I will miss them both.
