Clive,
So many wonderful memories of you Clive…
When we were all children together sat around the family dining table with you, mum, dad, Charles, Neal, grandpa, auntie Rene and myself….us children always starving hungry and tucking into mum’s wonderful cooking,…laughing and sharing jokes or bickering and arguing between siblings, and mum always saying “you can tell where Clive sits at the table…..there is always a ring of food around his plate” !! Family days out in the car with three children in the back and you in the front between mum and dad( because you were small and didn’t fidget) and you used to “squeak” in apprehension when dad was trying to manouevre narrow single country lanes.
Being so near in age we were all always so close but you had a special bond with your twin brother Neal and nothing or no one could separate you both. You enjoyed so much together…Rugby, water sports ,fishing. You were affectionately known to us in the family as the”waffler because you always had something to say about everything, you could waffle for England! …. So it was no surprise to us that you became a dedicated teacher! But you worked hard and put yourself through “Open University” and made us all so proud when you became the only one of us to have a university degree.
You met and married the love of your life, Lesley and together you dedicated the whole of your life to raising your children and grandchildren. They are a real credit to you both.
Your patient, fair and altruistic character was demonstrated in every aspect of your everyday life, nothing was too much for you….helping your family, your godmother, your colleagues, your students or our aging aunt Rene. You were always there for all of us in your quiet,unassuming , good-hearted way.
I will miss you very much little brother but I am so grateful and proud to have been your “big Sis”
Rest In Peace Clive, ..you take a piece of my heart with you. ❤️

Thank you Sir, for your dedication and not giving up on us when we needed support.
Rest peacefully.
Orleans year 2000 x
I taught with Clive at Orleans Park for 5 years and he was my first Head of Year as well as my cabin mate on a school trip cruising the Baltic on SS Uganda. He taught a young teacher just how important it is to know as much about their pupils as possible. A kinder man would be hard to find. He always knew what was troubling his charges and how to give them the care that they needed. He had a great sense of fun, although it was sorely tested when we braved the icy waters of the Uganda’s icy plunge pool one day. What a lovely man. God bless him and his family.

My Mother is one of Lesley’s cousins.
I met Clive a few times when I was little, but my chief memory is from a family gathering in the late 90s. I remember talking to him about 60s pop bands and thought had a very amiable manner.
I was sorry to hear of his passing.

Was so sad to hear of this, have fond memories of Mr “Chunky” Chapman from my time at Orleans Park.
He was never my teacher but are paths crossed many times at school, I especially remember the time he caught a group of us 5th years in the Crown at lunchtime!!!
I went on to work with his daughter Claire for many years and got to know Clive as person not just a teacher.
He will be sorely missed by all who knew him!
“Safe Travels Sir” from me and the Class of 81!
