The Silverwear.

The days glory are alas short lived, the next show's results await, however for the few, this lot keeps the memories fresh for twelve months.

On Saturday, October 8^th, we announced the untimely loss of Mr. Trevor Stewart (Lambeg).

Just six days earlier at this very show we had all greeted and shared the usual bustle of the show with him.

Trevor exhibited just the one dog although entering two to support the Show. - his beloved Sunnerset Over The World In Lambeg.

For those of us engrossed in the show, he just quietly slipped away, to head home after his class.

It is a measure of the man, who for 30 years loved his Cockers and as this island wrestled violently with its unhappy history, - knew no borders for the Breed and actively supported the Breed Clubs on this island as a whole.

A hour and a halfs drive each way just to support an Irish Breed Show and exhibit the one dog.

For those of us who didn't get to say goodbye on the day and those who knew him I include these last 3 pictures of this gentle man doing what we Cocker people do.

Think where mans glory most begins and ends,
and say my glory was I had such friends.
W. B. Yeats.
