Goodbye old friend : Dicky Ticker Tribute
An emotional day for all yesterday. For all those who aren't on Facebook, this link should still work.
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v...11881231483297 NB, if this link doesn't work, I shall upload to YouTube, but I'm trying to avoid that.

Re: Goodbye old friend : Dicky Ticker Tribute
Thanks for that Tim!
There are one or two that attended the funeral that aren't on my Facebook friend list(or even facebook), so thought this the best place to share this with them along with the rest of us that knew Mac

Re: Goodbye old friend : Dicky Ticker Tribute
I have just seen this on facebook. So sad to hear of his passing.
I hope he managed to write down his life story, he was telling me about it at AR10 and he desperately wanted to do it, so I really hope he did. A bit shocked and sending thoughts to all who knew and loved him. RIP old friend. |
