It is with great sadness that I pass on the news that our friend Roy Abbott died this morning, after a long and hard fought battle with Oesophageal cancer .

Roy was a long time member of the famed Mucky Duck Bush Band in Perth, Western Australia.

He was a great songwriter, an outstanding musician, a lovely man and a good friend,

I have no further details at this time but we are going to see his wife, Pauline, tomorrow and should be able to let you know something more after that.

He will be sadly missed.

Bugsy
