Default Gutted. Friend dead.

Got some shite news today that a friend of mine, not a close one but still a friend, collapsed suddenly and died saturday night. Looks like heart attack. 54 years old. No history of anything! Was only speaking to him a couple of weeks ago he had submitted my drawings for my extension to house! Seemed in good shape!

You never know when you times up RIP Steve

what an awful shame, a very close family friend died 2 weeks ago in his sleep, the same circumstances too, he was 60

RIP
