Our dear colleague and friend Chris Dodd’s funeral was held at St Stephen’s Church, South Dulwich, London, on Friday 27 February.

Tim Koch reported that it was a nice service held by Reverend Tim Buckler.

Tributes were paid by family and friends who spoke warmly about Chris. Among the speakers was rowing correspondent Rachel Quarrell, who, together with Chris, founded the eminent digital media outlet, RowingVoice, “The independent voice of rowing in Britain”.

For those who couldn’t attend the funeral, it was live-streamed on YouTube. However, it will only be available for two weeks, so take the opportunity to watch it here:
