Thank you for your support at school Mr smurthwaite you helped me through the hardest part of my life you helped me through all the bullying i went through moving from london in 1983 age 13 to your house Portland at Lychett Minster school and used to let me slip away early so i could escape across the fields
ironically my nick name you called me was Bully!! you always used to want me to join the Rugby but i never had the interest, I wish i did now!
and i used to carry the chairs for you at a lunch time down to the school rugby club when you had an event on there on a couple of occasions you even gave me a pint i couldnt belive it you were amazing! i would of not of turned out the way i have if it wasnt for you.
my dad passed this year as well born the same year as you I spoke more to you about my issues than i could with him so thanks again and REST IN PEACE!!

Kind regards
Neil Bullard
