Rupert was like no other! He carried the Windansea spirit in his heart. We'll miss you Rupe.



The Rose of the World

Bow down, archangels, in your dim abode:

Before you were, or any hearts to beat,

Weary and kind one lingered by His seat;

He made the world to be a grassy road

Before her wandering feet.

WB Yeats
