Title: Simon Cupid Stunt
Post by: Spen69 on September 03, 2011, 03:06 PM: Well I don't know what to say guys.

Just got off the phone with Steve Animal and had some really bad news about Simon (Cupid Stunt) as apparently he had a seizure last night and passed away. There's no other words I can say but he was one of the nicest blokes on Rad and MK won't be the same without him - my thoughts are with his family and friends right now as he will be truely missed.

There will be an empty seat round the campfire next year all night at MK gents and a truely empty feeling in the original and latest recruits to the Helipad "am" club that is for sure.

If you've got pics of Simon enjoying MK over the last few years would you please post them here as he loved this stupid hobby of ours and had a great time every summer with us.

The MK09 2am club is where it all began - Jonnygoose, I think you've got the pics of this mate so help me out please.

The MK10 3am club

The next morning with his trade-mark fag for breakfast!

The MK11 5am club

Please don't get in touch with Steve (Animal) for a bit as he's absolutley devastated as they've been mates since school and is tying to help sort stuff out.

Simon, you'll be missed buddy.......

He was a great friend and the best brother anyone could ever ask for.

Thank you for all the messages, they're really appreciated.

Cheers Sean, that's a nice touch and I know steve will be made up. Just got a text off him and he's really touched by all the replies, so keep them coming and I will update this thread as soon as Steve lets me know about any more details. It's really not sunk in yet and to those who knew Simon, these comments are spot on, especially the one about him only ever smiling or eating crisps (or smoking or holding a beer of course).

RIP buddy, you will be sorely missed and when MK rolls around, it will really remind me of how much you'll be missed :'(

Post by: Spen69 on September 12, 2011, 10:50 PM: OK lads, a quick update. Just been talking with Steve and there is still no news about any funeral plans due to delays in the process.

Simon's family will let Steve know as soon as they know and one of us will be on here with a further update.

Seems to take for ages but you can't rush these things unfortunately :-\
