Andy Magrath RIP

[Yorkie]

Andy Magrath was a Brighton fan living in Woodiingdean. He died on 12th August whilst on holiday in Spain. He was 37, married with two children. It was a heart attack.

I met Andy whilst queuing up for tickets for Cardiff and got chatting during the hours of waiting.
He went on the Seagulls Special with us and also met up for the Victory Parade.
A great sense of humour and I know one or two of you met him as well.

He has already had a funeral service in Spain but his family are having a memorial service here in Sussex

Here are the details:-

Here as promised are the details of Andy's memorial service: Celebration of Andys life

Tragic news. Whilst I didn't know him, I recognise him from the photo, so have obviously seen him around.

Big thoughts to his family, particularly his kids. That's far too young for a dad to die.
