Jim Wofford’s Tribute to Jack Le Goff

The text of veteran eventer Jim Wofford's moving speech on October 19, 2009, at a celebration of Jack Le Goff's life.

The sun has set now at Gladstone. The woods around this plain brick and stone building are dark and cold, just as--without Jack to guide us--the way before us is dark and cold.

Sir Harry Lauder said that he could tell where the lamplighter was by the trail that he left behind him. We now go our separate paths, but the extraordinary, irreplaceable, unforgettable Jack Le Goff will forever light our way.
