Tributes to George Michael Outside his Goring House.

Tributes to George Michael.

Shrine to the Singer.

We have arrived in Goring-on-Thames. I walked around the village taking many photographs. On leaving the church, I discovered these tributes to George Michael.

So many messages from so many fans. Many from overseas. Expressing sadness at the sudden loss. Many words clearly carefully chosen.

“God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not to be,
so he put his arms around you
and whispered come to me.”
