So sad, John was always such a lovely man, kind and considerate to everyone, but with such a sense of humour too. John will be missed so much.

I have just found out that another of our comrades has died yesterday, 17th October, John Sherwood, shergold.

R I P John, we will miss you at Euston this year, so sad, a very brave guy who had fought this disease for some time, at peace and pain free now. We pray for Val and her family at this very sad time.

I thought I would publish the Prayer that was read out this afternoon after the candles had been lit:-

Lord God our Father, we thank you for those whom we
love and who have been taken from us.
We thank you for the joy we received while they were with us.
We thank you for the love which we shared with them.
We pray that nothing bin their lives will be lost;
that they may live on in our hearts, as they now live with you.
And we pray for ourselves in our loss.
Let us not dwell on what might have been.
Give us instead the courage to embrace each day all that now must be.

Amen.

They will be remembered, their names WILL live on in our memories, as you that are left will be remembering them too.

God Bless.
Chris.

Yet another good man has been taken too soon.

John was one of the funniest, nicest guys around, and so many of us had the pleasure of meeting him and his lovely wife Val twice a year for the last four years.

Val says that he was taken very suddenly. I can't imagine her sorrow at the moment.

So many of you brave women have experienced the same devastating loss this year.
My heart breaks for you all.

I always say that we men fighting this cancer worry far more about leaving our soulmates behind than anything which ails us.

Dear Val, may you find strength now, and then eventually some comfort and peace.
John was a lovely guy. We loved him to bits. Our hearts, thoughts and prayers are with you at this saddest of times.

Hadn't heard about Sherberts passing, so thanks for letting us know Chris.

RIP John and all those others who have gone on before him.

It is with much sadness that I announce that Peter Wilsher died on Monday of a massive heart attack. [pedro mccoo on Bollocks to Pca]. R I P our dear friend. At least he didn't suffer to the end like most of our fallen have done with PCa. Chris.

Peter was a lovely man, John and I met him at the Leicester get together. All my sympathies to his wife Heather (Highlander) - when your man has advanced PCa and treatment options are beginning to run out, you don't imagine that something can come completely out of the blue and unrelated so this must have been a terrible shock. Peter, kind smiley man, sleep peacefully.

So sorry to hear the sad news about John. I met John 3 or 4 times at Euston and with Val at Leicester this year and it was always a pleasure meeting and talking to him. John was a really nice guy and he will be sadly missed. Condolences to Val and the family.
