Alison and Dick Splash

It is very difficult to find the words to express the tragic news I have to relay.

Two of our members, Alison and Dick Splash (Colin) were involved in a road traffic accident on Sunday 23rd October 2005 and were killed.

Colin and Alison were husband and wife who married last year. Alison was a valued member of this Forum Staff and was someone whom I, and many others respected tremendously and called her a friend. Along with Colin, they both provided a lot of fun and energy to these forums and I will miss them tremendously.

Their funeral was on Friday 28th October 2005 and their ashes are due to be scattered from the Menai suspension bridge sometime in the future when it re-opens.

I am awaiting further news on condolences and we will be organising a tribute that people can contribute to in the coming days. Till then please post in this thread any messages you wish to be passed onto the families.

A very sad day for the world.
