I heard recently of Geoff Cochrane´s passing, belatedly here in the UK. Such a witty and precise wordsmith, and a lovely bloke. I´ve been listening to his Radio NZ interviews and readings again.

I am so sorry to read last night of Geoff's passing. I have known him all my life, and he always stopped me for a chat in the street with his beautiful eyes and soft voice and our conversations with filled with his love of poetry. Had I known earlier I would have gone to his funeral in Island Bay. A good man with a good heart has left this earth. Farewell my mate.
