If you're fortunate you meet at least one person during your lifetime who leaves an indellible mark. In my case, I met him at the age of 12, as a first year at what was then Dungannon High School for Girls. He was my English teacher and his name was David Cranston.
He taught me for all but one year of my grammar school education and helped foster my passion for language and communication. He also instilled in me a love of Shakespeare. I had the pleasure of bumping into him regularly in later life and was able to tell him what a positive impact he'd had on me as a student and as a person.
His passing has filled me with sadness. Thank you, sir, for being such a magnificent teacher and a kind and generous man. I will miss you.
Good night, sweet prince and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest'. Caroline Bartley, Dungannon Monday 13 March 2017
David, a very kind and inspiring human being, will be sadly missed. Will miss his entertaining chats and perspectives on many relevant issues, first as a first rate teacher (the best!) and then as a dear friend over many, many years. Was delighted to be able to meet up with him every few months since my recent return from living abroad.
Still can't quite believe he has gone. Will cherish the films and photos I still have of him.
My sincerest sympathy to all his family, especially to his nephews of whom he spoke so fondly. Sharon Ingram, Dungannon High School for Girls, Sweden Monday 27 February 2017
