I'm in a 'get on and do things' mood just now and am trawling the forums trying to get some more details out.

My dad died suddenly and sadly on Monday night in London on his way back from France. He had been diagnosed with emphysema a few years ago, but as someone else has said, he carried on working at the SCO until his early retirement at the end of the edinburgh festival last august. Cause of death was Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.

My brother Dav and I are helping to sort out what we hope will be a 'proper good' and fitting send off next friday in Edinburgh.

If anyone wants more details, please reply and i'll post them as soon as things have been confirmed.

thanks for all your messages - they're good to read, and comforting too.

Cheers

Jen
ps Roger - your name seems very familiar, I'm sure my dad had quite a story about you, but i can't remember which one amongst the many!! Perhaps you could help?!
