Hello All

 

Devastating news about Clive. A Gentleman of the highest calibre, an absolutely fantastic dancer who made it all look so effortless and a man I have known for many years who also was the coolest guy on the planet. I was honoured to be his friend and I loved him to bits.  I know he will be sorely missed by all his friends at "Kingsway Hall" on the dance floor, A venue he very rarely missed but the venue will miss Clive.  Sleep well my friend.

So sad, known Clive a long while now. He was always the same whenever we saw him, a lovely, gentle, man. Will be missed. Condolensces to his family and friends. RIP. X

[muckyherbert]

I can honestly say that Clive was probably the most sincere, unassuming and all together nicest bloke I have met on the circuit. He had a style of his own, a lovely nature and a great sense of humour.

 

It's going to seem strange not seeing him doing his own little thing on the dance floor anymore

 

A true gent in every way who will be sorely missed

 

R.I.P. and God bless you

 

Gary & Denise xx

[Souljer6]

R.I.P Clive and our condolences to Ray and his family

Remember Clive best from Samanthas during the mid 70's. Best dancer on the scene by a country mile. We never spoke but Clive always had a smile, wink or a laugh for you.

[Steve Myers]

I knew Clive from the early days at Samanthas and from college when we were both apprentice bricklayers, he never seemed to be any different in all the years I knew him. Just getting ready to attend his funeral now, no doubt there will be a big turnout to give him a good  send off .......
 

Rest in peace Clive

[Souljer6]

Ray, Clive's brother has asked us to post up a big thank you to the many of you who attended Clive's funeral today.  He was overwhelmed by the massive turnout and support.  So many lovely tributes to a guy who obviously commanded the greatest respect.

 

Richard and Gill

[Winsford Soul]

God bless you Clive. Your in a better place now. R.I.P
