| Member | Remember the night the three of us went out and Tyler was dancing up a storm....well jumping like a pogo stick anyway. The bouncer came over and told him to cut it out. lol priceless. I remember asking Tyler how a guy with his skill and agility couldn't dance lol Last edited by Kevin Hector; 01-08-2008 at 01:10 PM. |

| Member | Didn't know him but very saddened by this news. Always is a terrible thing to lose people at such a young age. It sounds as though he was a great friend to you and that it would be in his honor for you to continue carrying on in his legacy of hard work and dedication. May God rest his soul. |

| Premium Member A Better Bastard | Wow Hector. Hearing of the bagpiper and the class of the two sides is a reminder that we are all part of a very proud fraternity. GEU as a club has had to deal with the death of two teammates now in recent memory. I was involved in a game about 6 years or so ago after Wilkes passed, who played for the Tigers. The game was their first, and Dean, Wilkes’s brother, was playing. The game was also within the week of one of our teammate’s mum passing away that week after a battle with cancer. In light of this, we’d decided to join the GEU Tigers in wearing black arm bands- to support them and our teammate, who’d decided to play. I remember a similarly intense game, I remember we won, and I also remember Dean had a very good match in attacking from his left fullback position as often as he could. Happy to hear you won this game Hector. |

| Member | It never ceases to amaze me, as another poster stated on Keepers' thread recently, how this community supports each other at the end of the day. I remember when my buddy Coach's sister passed how Aves said 'Time to rally the troops' on here. Playing on and against teams with tradgedy and seeing the respect on and off the pitch is truly a remarkable experience in those tough situations. All class with Scots Piper by the way Hector. ![]() Nothing like Amazing Grace on the pipes to get the eyes welled up. I hope you got through the weekend OK Tony. Tough on you bud I'm sure. I never knew you Tyler but I know of you now sonno. Rest in Peace, RF
