This is, indeed, sad news. Never a fully fledged folkie Tony played bass guitar in a number of ceilidh bands and was always a staunch supported of the Herga Mummers; he rarely missing a Boxing Day tour.

I downed many a pint of London Pride with Tony at a regular Tuesday sessions at the Castle in Harrow in the '70s. He was a good friend and a really nice chap. The quiet one in Puddleduck!

I posted a few pictures of him on the Herga Folk Club FB group.

RIP.
