Very sad news
« on: June 26, 2018, 02:56:23 PM »
It is with deep sadness that I have to tell you that Ifor from south Wales, passed away in his sleep last night. Along with many others who knew him, I am totally devastated.
Ifor was one of life's few remaining true characters, and I enjoyed his company greatly. He will be greatly missed by all of us who spent time at rallies with him. My thoughts are with Mark, Hillary, and all of Ifor's family.
Namaste

Well....I wasn't expecting that news, what a shame.
I was asking Mark where Ifor was when he didn't go to the NI meet in April.

Bit of a shock to hear about the passing of Ifor. A real one off. Some interesting yarns with him over the years. Hard to believe I won't see him again.

Sorry to hear about this, only met Ifor once but he seemed such a genuine guy. The world can't afford to lose good people.

It's characters like Ifor who enrich this increasingly dull & mundane life we lead. My condolences to his family & friends...
RIP Ifor.

RIP Ifor. Condolences to his family and friends

Met him a few times over the years and as the rest have said he was definitely a character and did things his own way - reminded me of the late Bruce Pollard. You could always guarantee he would turn up to a rally on something interesting.

Regards


Tony
