Basically if I don't comment or leave a new thread for 6 months then presume I'm a gonner. I didn't know Billy but I wish I had now that I have read these comments. R.I.P. Mr Bunter you obviously had may people enjoy your posts.
In the case of our Billy, it was confirmed on Facebook by his relatives. Some VEF members keep in touch there, too. A message or confirmation about a member's passing can only come from people close to him.
