So sorry to hear of Ed’s passing. I taught with him in Sheffield, then lived with him for nearly 2 years! Haworth, I knew you when you were little - you used to swing on the washing line pole in our garden! Climbed with Ed in the Avon Gorge and then followed on Dream of White Horses in Wales. Totally petrified but encouraged by dear Ed. Then out to Yosemite in 1974 - met him off the top of El Cap in a blizzard! Our ways parted in 1975 and I came back to the UK. So many memories after that of seeing Ed and some of his passions through TV and newspapers. I think I even get a mention in his book! My sincerest condolences to you all. My own husband died of Motor Neurone Disease 11 years ago, so I know all about bereavement and grief. But what a life Ed had - and surely we are all better for having known him and having played a small part in his life. God bless you all. Lindy (nee Petty) now Wood
