Title: Kenneth Hatts, RIP
Post by: tikay on June 07, 2007, 06:07:42 PM
The Times is worth a read if for nothing else, it's Obituaries, where it somehow locates the most extraordinary people who have moved on.

Today, amongst a score of others, they featured the Late Kenneth Hatts. He was 97, God Bless him.

Kenneth did all sorts of weird & wonderful things, but his lasting legacy was to do all the illustratiions for "Goat Husbandry", said to be the definitive book on the subject. His sketches of Murcian, & Toggenburg Goats, were a class apart.

Boring? To some, maybe. The fifth Edition of "Goat Husbandry" (it's an indispensable bedside book) can still be purchased, second hand, for $45.

See...http://www.amazon.com/Goat-Husbandry-Revised-Edited-Goodwin/dp/0571165958

So, assuming you coud write your own Obituary, what one thing in particular would you wish to be remembered by? Note, "Goat Husbandry Illustrator" has already been used, so anyone nominating that will be disqualified.

I would like to be remembered as someone who reminded people not to take life for granted. Who helped them to realise that the best things are not only free, but priceless.

Iron "lucky" side, was renowned as the world's worst singer, so much so that audiences called him "unlucky". A talented one card hold'em player, the wheels only fell off when he had to use two cards. Or he had a puncture.
