jules_darby Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Thanks for this Jay, not been on here for a while but was gonna post something. Our Gaz passed away on Sunday afternoon. He'd had a major heart op 7 years ago at the age of 30 followed by cancer the following year. He then needed another heart op in october 2016. He'd been doing really well, was working hard as always and was blessed with his first child in January this year. We don't know the exact cause yet but was sudden and we're all in massive shock. He was a massive Wanderer and had a flag delivered on saturday morning with "Silchester Whites" - thats where he lived, just outside Reading. Received some amazing words from people including from those who knew him off here so thanks for those. He'll be massively missed Jimmy Only just seen this Really sorry for your loss mate; thoughts with you and the rest of your family pal Quote
