He was pretty much the backbone of the Seaton Sluice club, and also involved with the Sea League and known to just about everyone on the club / match circuit. Lately he'd been keeping us all up to speed with the whole MCZ & netting issues - one of those blokes deeply involved & committed to the sport. I think he was only 40 (or 41), but very experienced - just goes to show the worst can happen to any of us. I'm sure those who've known him longer than me would have a lot more to add.

Cheers, Gary.
