If I could choose the perfect father-in-law qualities
I'd make him witty and fun, he'd join in with frivolities
He'd be caring and kind and genuinely warm hearted
With courage and honour he'd be loyal and trusted
He would support and encourage be intelligent but modest
He'd be thoughtful, understanding, compassionate and honest
He'd be calm and wise, inspirational and optimistic
With all these qualities, is this expectation realistic
Some might not think so, but I know for sure
This is Claude, my wonderful, one of a kind Father-in-law

Thank you for being my father-in-law and for all the happy memories, I'll treasure them always. Love Jen xxxx

Very sad to hear this news. We met Claude in 1952 when we all moved into the new houses in Purcell Road- we lived four doors away. Great memories of football in fields and at HR, Sat morning Gaumont pictures, getting wet in the River Sowe, and all the usual teenage fun. Way back then, Claude was a gent - kind, clever, generous, dependable - a real pleasure to know. We send our thoughts and condolences to all the Reid family at this difficult time.

A genuine gentleman that our family had the pleasure of knowing for many years.
Always smiling and first to say hello.
Will be very sadly missed.
Love Ken, Eve, Chris and Mark x

Such sad news, we have lost a gentlemen, a great fiend, and a great bowler, will sadly miss the fun and friendly banter we had at Stoke Cov, thinking of Shirley and his lovely family at this sad time, RIP Claude ❤️
