Hi peeps, just a quick hello and thanks for the messages of support.
My Brothers funeral will take place on Thursday and it was revealed it was his diabetes that took his life. He fell into a coma and never woke up on Tuesday the 15th May, really gutted and such a waste of a good life as only 34yrs old and was a very happy go lucky bloke.
Anyways there has been some fantastic results for you guys and look forward to getting back into my hobby again soon.
I may write to a few clubs/people to see if i can raise some money for Diabetes in the next few weeks in memory of him.
Thanks
Jamie

A real tragedy for you and your family Jamie. I think your idea would be a worthy memory for your brother, and get good support from your friends on here for starters.

Hi Guys, again thanks for the replys.
The funeral went as well as expected and way over 150 people attended so i was very happy with the turnout.
Like i mentioned last time, i want to raise some money for the The Norfolk Diabetes Trust's Services where my brother used to attend once a month.
I have started by sending an email to 10 League 1/2 clubs and have already had a responce from "Accrington Stanley" who have offered two free tickets to a match for me to auction so once i have enough stuff to list i will get cracking. If anybody wishes to donate anything let me know and i will forward my address
Thanks Again Jamie

I am also glad things went to plan Jamie, and hope the fundraising goes well.
I will kick things off on here for you, and send you a signed Kaiser Chiefs cd for the fundraising. A good cause that needs money.
