SerenityNowakaBleh · 11/02/2010 15:15

Poor man and his poor family.

MarshaBrady · 11/02/2010 15:17

Oh no, that is so so sad. Quite shocked when I saw your link, poor man.

Sad
BelleDameSansMerci · 11/02/2010 15:19

I can't find this on any other news sites - not even Reuters. Bizarre.

RipMacWinkle · 11/02/2010 15:22

Do you think it's not true then Belle?

You're right though - that is odd.

Oh my god sad

BelleDameSansMerci · 11/02/2010 15:27

Rip guess I'm hoping it's not really but it would be unusual for a major newspaper to make such a mistake. I just can't find it anywhere else.

Poledra · 11/02/2010 15:28

It's on the BBC now

DorotheaPlenticlew · 11/02/2010 15:29

My goodness. Haven't followed link but it is always sad when this happens to anyone. And he was relatively young, right?

Will go read.

SerenityNowakaBleh · 11/02/2010 15:29

There's only three articles on this. I think it's only just breaking now.

BelleDameSansMerci · 11/02/2010 15:30

RipMacWinkle · 11/02/2010 15:32

Poor man, the grief he must have been feeling at the death of his friend and mentor, and then his Mum

darkandstormy · 11/02/2010 17:06
