ArtistsRifles Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Sorry to hear that Olaf - not that any time is good for this news but this probably is the worst of the worst times and 37 years old is no age at all..... The three of use here send our condolences and best wishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enigma Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 Thanks for the reply's, I appreciate it. I can't get my head around it. We met James at Beltring 2001 and became friends. He came over for the Market Garden commemorations a few time. James and his friend Mat also met up when I went to A&E but had to go early in the morning on the 1st A&E day. Some may have seen him there or met him in our encampment at Beltring. Here a photo of James taken in 2008 when he and Mat visited our country in Sept. Rest in peace my friend.

What a shame for him to die so early in life. My deepest sympathy and condolences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
