Thanks Joe.
I was planning to go and pay my resects when I'm back next, but can one even do that with a cremation? Anyway, hope you can make it on the day.

Still can’t get into Whomail even though I can see I have at least one - so putting it here.
Lee’s funeral will be on 25th July, 2:30pm at Chelmsford Crematorium
I’ll be away, but am trying to change those plans so I can attend

I first met Lee in 87 I think it was, so we go way back and were very good friends. After moving overseas I obviously didn't see him much at all and the contact faded out, I heard and read on FB etc that he had become a bit ''connected'' which surprised me a bit, as back then he just had regular jobs, mainly in sales and finance, so someone he found a way of working within football, albeit U think pretty much on the periphery.
I've learnt more since his passing about the background of his demise and to be honest it's pretty sad, so obviously won't share on here, but let's just say that Lee lived for the day. Will take a bit of sinking in this.

I’m absolutely devastated to hear this news. I knew LoR for a long time and he was a top bloke, very generous. Like Joe C, I have a story that sums him up.
A few years back he called me. “You ever been to the player’s awards?” I hadn’t. “Well, I’ve got a place for you on my table next to a player” He wouldn’t take a penny for the ticket. Turned out I was next to Javier Hernandez who was an absolute cunt (I’m pretty sure LoR knew this and put me next to him on purpose!) but we had a great laugh.
LoR always had a story, always put you at ease and couldn’t do enough for you. I will miss him.

I never knew LoR, but I did know who he was.
Never heard anyone utter a bad word in his name.
A real shame
RIP

RIP Life of Riley.
Didn't know him personally but remember him well on here and especially remember him championing Missing Andy.
Condolences to all that knew and loved him. Which was a lot of people by the looks of it.

Flippin ‘eck that’s sad.
I think I need to stop popping my head in here.
A nice bloke from my interactions with him. Missing Andy were a decent band too by the way - I know he managed them, not sure if family were in the band mind.
Thoughts with family and friends
