Gli Auguri di Natale scritti per noi da Enrico
Christmas Greetings dedicated to us by Enrico
È con grande tristezza che annunciamo la scomparsa di Enrico Caironi, un uomo che tutti i colleghi ed amici della Clay Paky ricorderanno per la sua professionalità, integrità ed umanità. Nel settore dello show-lighting Enrico è stato per moltissimi anni l’ambasciatore della Clay Paky e il rappresentante esemplare della passione e qualità italiane. Nato a Bergamo nel 1947, Enrico Caironi si unì al team della Clay Paky nel 1995. In qualità di Direttore Commerciale divenne subito un protagonista importante delle vicende aziendali, battendosi in prima linea, sempre con indomabile motivazione. Con la sua serietà e simpatia ha saputo conquistare per la Società la stima di clienti, Lighting Designer e concorrenti. La passione per il lavoro non lo ha mai abbandonato: anche negli ultimi anni, sebbene ufficialmente in pensione, ha offerto a Clay Paky molte delle sue energie, portando al successo progetti impegnativi come il concorso “Knight of Illumination” e l’esposizione “Show Way”. L’ultima indimenticabile testimonianza che ci ha lasciato è l’incredibile coraggio con cui ha affrontato la grave malattia che lo ha aggredito. Il suo sorriso cordiale, la sua generosa ospitalità, la scrupolosità con cui portava a compimento ogni incarico rimarranno per sempre nel ricordo di coloro che hanno avuto il piacere di conoscerlo.
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Enrico Caironi, a man whose professionalism, integrity and humanity will be remembered by all Clay Paky work associates and friends. In the show-lighting industry, Enrico had for years been ambassador of Clay Paky and a model representative of Italian passion and quality. Born in Bergamo in 1947, Enrico Caironi joined the Clay Paky team in 1995. As Commercial Director, he immediately became a key figure in Company business, always fighting at the forefront with relentless motivation. With his reliability and charm, he earned to the Company the esteem of customers, Lighting Designers and competitors. His passion for the job never once abandoned him. Though officially retired, in the last years he dedicated much of his energy to Clay Paky, leading demanding projects such as the “Knight of Illumination” and the “Show Way” exhibition to success. The last unforgettable memory he left us with was the incredible courage with which he faced the serious disease that afflicted him. His warm smile, generous hospitality, and thoroughness with which he carried out his every endeavour will remain for ever in the hearts of those who had the pleasure of knowing him.
The passing of Enrico is a great loss, his zest for life, his enthusiasm and his determination were an example to us all. He always sparkled with warmth and humour at every occasion. The thoughts and prayers of everyone here at Stage Electrics go to his family and his friends at Clay Paky.
Hello Enrico , we past a lot off happy days with you .
Nous avions la même passion pour la lumière .
Tu resteras toujours dans notre mémoire .
Ciao Enrico

Ciao Enrico, grazie per il tuo bel messagio di Natale … Non lo dimenticheremo. Non ti dimenticheremo.
Enrico
A kind and gentle soul who not only re-introduced me to the great product that is Clay Paky but also to some of the finer points of Italian cuisine and viniculture. You will not be forgotten. Mille grazie
A great man and a true friend, one of the very best. All of us at Richard Martin are going to miss him………………..Ciao Enrico
Enrico era – e rimarra’ – un icona nell’industria dello spettacolo.
Un anima generosa, un pioniere.
Grazie Enrico.
As everyone else has already said a sad loss to our industry. My condolences to his wife and family and all at Clay Paky.

Joni Mitchell famously sung, “You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone”. Well now you have gone Enrico, and the world feels a little emptier and a little smaller and a little less joyful. But of course we have all those great memories of the time spent with you, and whenever any of us collects together down the road we will toast our good fortune in having known you and share the fond memories of the times we were together
So, so sad!
We did so much together and laughed so much together Enrico.
We miss you and we’ll always remember you with such affection.
Ciao caro amico.
All of us at the Showlight Committee were so sorry to hear of Enrico’s passing. His influence in our lighting business was so much more than his job at Clay Paky. He was a wonderful host on our isits to Italy and so proud to take us round Bergamo. We will all miss him, as we know you will at Clay Paky. Please accept our heartfelt sympathy.
Ian Dow and the Showlight Committee
there were still so many words to say,
there was still so much time to share,
There is still a life to live,
without you my sweet father .
with you my sweet friend.

To our good friend, you will be missed and thanks
to you, we have this records with Clay Paky as the groundwork
You did in 2007.
God Speed!!
Enrico became a very close friend in a very short time. His passion, generosity and warm, engaging spirit will be greatly missed by me and I’m sure by all who spent any time with him. The world seems a slightly duller place without him. A truly great man.

il miracolo di enrico…..
non sono impazzita, non ho cominciato a credere sul serio nei miracoli all’alba dei 32 anni, ma soprattutto credo che enrico avrebbe riso come un pazzo leggendo il titolo di queste due righe.
in cosa consiste in pratica questo famigerato miracolo di cui vado farneticando? beh, consiste nel fatto che proprio nel giorno del funerale di enrico, enrico stesso ha fatto comparire sulla scrivania di tutte le sue colleghe di clay paky (anche se mi piace di più chiamarle amiche), una splendida, scintillante e festaiola stella di natale.
ormai l’appuntamento delle donne clay paky con questa santa lucia con i baffi era diventato un must, anche se quest’anno è stato più speciale ed emozionante del solito.
il fatto di aver ricevuto la stella di natale dopo che enrico se n’era già andato, la dice lunga su che persona fosse lui: altruista, con il pensiero sempre rivolto agli altri e al domani, quindi anche ottimista, propositivo, esuberante, oltre che attento al prossimo e ai dettagli. una persona che ci saremmo voluti godere ancora un po’..
avrei molto altro da aggiungere, ma credo basti così: personalmente non riesco a dire che mi mancherà, perché non mi sembra proprio possibile che non sia già più qui …
a truly inspirational man! all our love!
I was just informed of enrico,s passing. I’m so deeply sad. He always looked after me like his own son.
My utmost sympathies for his family and friends who also took me under their wing.I will remember you always with love and respect.
