Re: Mark Symonds 'The Alien' RIP
Really sad news, a truly open guy who talked about his experience of going through the cot death of his child and how he and his wife were still best friends after god knows how many years together.
Also he was one of the few that left this board for a short time with Jepsters, Earnie Trimm Trabbs and a few others many moons ago to another board (i think Matt set it up?) it had loads of old arcade games on it :hehe:
Another memory was him raising and collecting money for another poster who was seriously ill and in hospital to get him a laptop, forget the name of the poster but he was over the moon with it.
Never met him but exchange emails years ago when he was over in the Costa Brava to help get him tickets for a Barcelona game.
All the best mate.

I attended the funeral earlier this morning, a fitting send off for Mark, a very much liked and loved man.
