In Shock.

Awful news, very sorry to hear it. Condolences.

Wow, so sorry to hear about that. What a shock for everyone, very sad.

Have a drink or whatever and toast him. Sounds like a hell of a guy, and to be honest, 49 is young, but it doesn't sound like a bad way to go (instantly and all that), and it sounds like he was a good person to have had in your life, even if it wasn't for long enough. Maybe he loved life but would still haven taken instant unexpected death at 49 over long drawn out and painful at 69.

Awful, and way too young to go.

Sorry to hear that man, sounds like you had some cracking times and I'm sure that's what he would like you to think on. 

Best wishes

Way too young for sure, but a life well lived is an awesome thing.

RIP Grizz, you cracking human.

Thanks Kev.

Spoke to Jack, Grizz's son (16) last night who has just gotten onto the Leic Tigers Academy and is at Oakham on a sports scholarship.

Said he knows 'he's the man now and he has to be strong', bless him. Poor kids- there's 2 daughters too, younger- 11 and 14.

So sad. Thinking of you and his family, James.

Poor bloke. Same thing happened to my best mate's sister. Be careful out there people.
