A dear friend

by **Rondetto** on Fri Jun 06, 2008 10:04 pm

I've just heard that a friend who I have spoken to every single day for the past 2-3 years on a popular chat site, has died of a heart attack today. He was 60 and went to hospital with chest pains at Christmas, they put him on statins, aspirin and a strict diet. He was doing so well and felt better than he had in years.
It's a sad, sad shock.

Ron, sorry to hear about your friend.

It's always the good ones that get ill and the scum of this earth last forever.

Think of all the good times as memories last forever.

Thank you all, this is the news I received last night. As you can see, at first we wondered if it was the same bloke, but alas it surely is:
