    Very sad news - I'm totally stunned!

    I was only chatting to him the other week - a really nice genuine bloke and a credit to Redfearns and the sport as a whole. A sad loss.

    If anyone is organising a collection for flowers, please let me know.

    Totally gutted I used to enjoy a chat with Pete at the UKAHFT rounds. I first met him at last years gathering, it feels like I've known him a lifetime. My condolences to his family.

    Me too, He was always sat at the container when I turned up, seems really strange when he isn't there to say hello.

    Very impressed to hear of the amount of money raised. Well done to everyone who donated.

    Prompted by Gary C's reminiscences, I have moved this thread to its rightful place.

    Died in around 2005

    I only met Pete a few times but his quiet demeanour and willingness to help everybody left a lasting impression. Pete attended the HFT and FT comps despite having had a serious of major health problems, and in his heart I think he knew he was on borrowed time.

    As with many quiet guys he may not stick in many people's minds, but a top bloke.

    Rest In Peace Pete

    A sad loss to his family and friends a huge loss to Redfearns.
    Pete although not a well man was trying to live his life to
    the full.
    As he told me a couple of weeks ago that when I go it
    wont be sat about. I don't want to regret the things
    I havn't done.What a wonderfull out look on life.
    Pete was allways helpfull and when not helping out at
    the club was usualy to be found in his shed tinkering.
    Or more often than not making some gadget or other
    for someone at the club.I have one of his side wheels
    different to the norm but it does the job.Once again he
    will be sadly missed.

    I can't believe it, Pete was only about 56.

    Always helping out at the club, sharing his knowledge, do owt for you would Pete.

    Spent many an afternoon wittering away with him up at the club about this and that.

    Rest in peace mate.

    On behalf of Sammie and me - I can only echo what has been said above.

    We got to know him at the Worlds where he was Marshalling and he was a great help to us.

    One of lifes gentlemen.
    RIP
