    Re: Darren Holloway (Pennine)

    Amanda – your words & thoughts are truly wonderful and very heartfelt, the Ceremony & Celebration of Darren last Thursday and the get-together afterwards at Morley Hayes was just so so so right and an amazing testament to a very special person who plainly changed many people’s lives and made them think, love & laugh too…..as you know the tears are, and always will be very close to the surface.... and the smiles, banter & laughter will remain forever in our hearts & minds..

    We (Lis’ & I) thought it would be fitting to put her poem for Daz, up here to share and hold…as we all do…

    All the Very Best to You & Josh & The Holloway Clan...

    Andy L Howie…..Pennine Fell Runners

    DAZ’S MAGIC BUMBAG…….


    I will put in his bag…….
    The raucous banter of friends teasing one another as the start line lurches forward
    The thrill and adventure of exploring new places, starting new races
    Tears of joy and delight as challenges are conquered

    I will put in his bag…….
    Sharing a beer as there’s talk of new routes, short cuts, trods missed
    The rhythm of feet as they dance across the mountain tops
    The love and understanding of true fell running friends always nearby

    I will put in his bag…….
    An energy and determination to be marveled at by others
    The purest blue skies that reflect an inner peace and harmony, at one in the wild
    An ease of finding the strength and sparkle in whoever he met

    Daz’s bag is fashioned from a mix of woven purple heather and vivid green moss
    With golden bracken entwined on the top and secret stream pockets
    It’s stitches are craggy with breathtaking surprise views
    With a spark of an autumn sunrise to capture his mountain passion

    He flew over rainbows with an open heart and his bag held tight
    Touched souls, shared dreams, enthused all
    With a smile and kind words, friends will always remember.

    I will put in his bag…….
    XxxxxxxX
    Love always……Love always….

    A poem by Lis Bloor—written on 16th October 2012
