Over the last twenty five years I have worked extensively with several Charities in Brighton and Hove and in Sussex. I was able to connect with many of the members of the Councils in Brighton and Hove and in a number of the other locations. One of the people I met on numerous occasions was Garry and although we often had different views about political perspectives we got on very well. Then 13 years ago I got involved in a business called Ashdown Audio Visual that is based in in East Sussex and about 8 or 9 years ago we moved into a location in Uckfield. Although our premise was not supplied directly by Lawson Commercial, most of the premises around our location were provided by Lawson. I know Chris Lawson very well because back in 1991 when my Church was seeking a building we obtained it through Chris Lawson. However when we moved into Uckfield on several occasions I bumped into Garry who has been working with Chris Lawsons business for many years. He was a fantastic person within the Council and in his role in Lawson Commercial. His death is very sad.
