Sad Times

[Piece]

Have to share this somewhere and I hope you guys don't mind. I lost my best mate, best man and golfing buddy this week. . He slipped away after a short, very unkind and unfair illness, leaving a beautiful wife and two young daughters.

He was a brilliant headteacher and affected so, so many lives. He was massively popular and inspirational, particularly to all his kids he taught. If the family allows, there will be hundreds at his service.

Thanks mate. I'll always be grateful that I knew you. :cheers:

Of course we dont mind,
So sorry for your loss, life is precious and sometimes short
Make the most of every hour, thats all you can do

Life ain't fair Matt but at least he has left his mark on the world. Chin up fella :thup:

Sad and difficult times indeed. We lost a very good friend just a few weeks ago aged just 52. Life is precious. Enjoy very minute.

Sorry to hear of your loss

The poker community lost one of its own yesterday, one of the very good guys, so sad.

Reminds you to live every minute, this is no dress rehearsal.

Exactly this! life can suck sometimes, mate of mine went last week. 37 years old. 3 kids under 7. No warning heart attack and died before the ambulance could get there.

So sorry to hear that. Long may he be remembered!

Sorry for your loss mate, thoughts are with yourself, family and friends at this sad time.

 

[SocketRocket]

Sounds like he did what the best of people do. Change the lives of others for the best.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Sorry to hear this. However think what a legacy he will have left by inspiring so many kids along the way.

I am terribly sorry for your loss. I know in America it is no uncommon for everyone to get together to throw a few quid in to a college savings fund account for the children. Maybe something to think of?

Live your life the way your friend would want too!

Great words everyone. :thup: Thanks.

 

[Beezerk]

Tragic, sorry to hear that mate. Have a few with him in mind, knowing he touched so many lives.

 

[Blue in Munich]

Sounds like he left the world a better place than he found it, especially through his work, which is no mean feat. I'm sorry for your loss.

 

[Deleted member 1740]

Condolences on your loss Mate, he sounded like A true gent.

 

[Slime]

I'm sorry for your loss.
Just think of the good times and make sure his wife and kids are looked after through these difficult and tragic times.
He'll thank you for that.

Slime.
