THE MEAD 23
MESSAGES & MEMORIES REMEMBERING HENRY HORSEMAN B�: C������ B���� th
On the morning of the 13 April 2022, the sun shone a li�le less brightly across Southmead as Henry Horseman lost his ba�le with cancer. There are very few people like Henry in this world – pure kindness through and through. And if you have someone in your life who looks at you the way that Henry looked at his wife Kathleen, and the way Kathleen looked at Henry (true, unfailing and uncondi�onal love), then you are incredibly lucky. We will all have memories of Henry – be it him zooming along the pavement on his scooter (nearly knocking you down) with Buddy on his lap, being central to the crea�on of Southmead Development Trust with his wife Kathleen, or his wonderful, heartwarming smile. Henry was central to life in Southmead, and will be sorely missed.
