James B Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Gutted for you. Can't imagine what it feels like. It's always horrible to read in the news but seeing your personal tribute almost bought me to tears. Really drives it home these are the best people, with lives, wives, children and best mates, torn apart by the sacrifice they have made for us all. A terrible price to pay but such an honor for you to have known him. Blue skies.............. Quote
