R.I.P Pete

Sad to hear that. He'll be missed in the infamous 'Pete's Bar'

How sad! I remember Pete's Bar.

I'm very sorry. He was fun!

Oh that's a shock Envious, he was a 'friend' of mine too for a while. How sad, his grandsons will miss him.

Such a shame. He had a great sense of humour.

That is so sad.

Oh no, that's awful! Happy memories of Pete's Bar...
RIP Pete

Another one here so sad at that news. Pete and I exchanged a few PM's about football and my DG, he was a firm Man Utd fan. A to you Pete

That's a shame. Never went in Pete's bar, but exchanged PMs. Another good man gone.

Envious

I am in shock.

I have been in contact with Pete , more so since he stopped posting on GN.

Pete was so funny, a wonderful sense of humour and I am actually quite tearful at the moment.

I am thinking of his PM's where we shared stories of our Grandchildren and I feel so upset thinking of them at the moment. He was a support when my father died and my daughters divorce, albeit from a virtual pal.

I am so upset, are you absolutely positive this news is correct? I just can't believe it!

Yes...his daughter posted it on his facebook page. Im shocked too.Though I know blood clots can be very dangerous,he was taking his medication and had gone for a scan. The worse was not something anyone would of expected.

Btw nothing was said of his cause of death I just know of his recent health concerns.

I didn't know Pete, but it's always a shock when we lose a fellow gransnetter.

May he rest in Peace

I didn't know Pete but he sounds a nice fellow.

I wonder what has happened to PapaOscar who posted regularly up until a few months ago. Has anyone seen posts from him recently?

Oh I rem Pete..in the bar, although I never posted much in there, oh dear that is sad.

PapaOscar came back for a short while and then disappeared again.

I've been wondering about PapaO as well. Perhaps he's lurking and not posting. Hope he's all right.

Yes Mini I hope PapaO is ok too. It's good that we care about our virtual friends.

Bump

soontobe, I don't think you will have noted this thread ?

It was a shock and I believe you will be interested to read this thread for yourself, sorry if I have made a mistake.

PapaO , on a thread some months ago, said he wouldn't be around for a while, I do hope he's ok?

No I didnt note this thread. And it was only chance that I have come upon it now.

I dont think I know either poster?
