He briefly had his own publishing company, ‘Kirkland House’. He was a wonderful composer and teacher of children. Heard that he died in a fire, but I haven’t been able to confirm this.

Many thanks for the information, Ray. It’s nice to know he is remembered fondly and it’s great that his music is sung around the world.

He specialized in music for children and wrote many wonderful pieces. He was one of the innovators of children’s church music in the 1970s and 1980s.
