RIP Thread
Re: RIP Thread
Last week a US comedian passed of cancer, Norm Macdonald. He was very much like Sean Locke in his unique comedic outlook. Again, no one knew he had been battling cancer for 9 years. Like Sean Locke he was a comedians, comedian. He got fired from his job on SNL because he would rip OJ Simpson, and the producer was a friend of OJ's. 18 months later he was back out on SNL as a host and in his monologue he said "either I've got funny in 18 months or the show has turned to shit since I left". RIP Norm.
In addition
RIP - Sean Locke
RIP - Greavsie
RIP - John Challis
Post covid cancer deaths are rocketing at the moment. Strength to those fighting the damn disease, and condolences to those who have lost friends and/or family recently.

Re: RIP Thread
Not RIP but didn’t know where else to put it…
Hazel O’Connor had to be put into an induced coma at the weekend after being found at her home in France after suffering a medical incident.
Have tickets to see her later in the year and was so looking forward to it.
Hope she makes a full recovery\
Her song, “will you” is a sensational piece of music, including the Wes Magoohan saxophone solo.

Re: RIP Thread
Sad news. I loved her stuff. I was mostly a metal fan in those days (still am, mostly) but also liked a lot of the punk and Ska stuff out then too. Whilst more commercial, "Will you" never got the credit it deserved as an amazingly well written and performed song. Hope she pulls through.StuartL wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 8:56 pmNot RIP but didn’t know where else to put it…

Aisling Murphy, a young woman murdered by an evil I can't even imagine.
Watching her funeral today, I struggled to hold back my tears.

Re: RIP Thread
Had some sad news that a friend of mine from childhood passed away last Friday from a heart attack at 52
Knew him from the age of 9, when we played football together and went to the same school.
At about 15 /16 he was in my group of 5 best friends and later married one of our other friends sister.
Leaves behind his wife, a son of 17 and a daughter of 12.
I moved away from the area but he would be one who I would really look forward to having a beer and a laugh with at any re-union.
Big reminder to all, enjoy your lives as best you can , do what you really want to fit in while you have your health to do it as one day it will be too late.

I know your loss mate. I've lost 3 close friends in the last ten years and I still struggle to accept they are gone.
My own recent health scare really shook me up a bit too about how fragile this life can be.
Be safe Gooners and tell your loved ones you love em.

Re: RIP Thread
Cheers DB, I guess it also hits home that I’m no longer a spring chicken, and as you poignantly say, not to take your own health for granted.DB10GOONER wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 10:19 pmSorry for your loss Stu.
