I heard today about the sudden and unexpected death of our member and friend Roger, G4HBA (UKSMG # 262) whilst on holiday in Spain. It came as a shock to me and his family must be devastated.

I spoke to him a week last Sunday, the day before he set off on his travels. He was looking forward to his holiday, regretful that he would be missing a couple of contests but should be back for the 6M this coming Thursday.

Although I personally have not known Roger long he was well known and respected in the Yorkshire area, we have lost a true Gent. As it says on his QRZ entry he was proud to be a member of our group and we were proud to have you with us Roger.

Tuesday nights will not be the same without hearing your voice.
