Tony Buckland


My friend Tony died on Tuesday 25th January 2010. He was 80 years old and one of the most decent human beings I have ever met. Tony saw only good in everyone. He was a Quaker.

He worked hard all his life in a variety of jobs ranging from plastering to social care and (latterly) collecting supermarket trolleys (though he stopped that a couple of years ago).

Tony knew some wonderful songs and I had the pleasure of accompanying him on guitar a few times.

I'll miss you Tony, lots of people will.
