Totally agree with your first point.  I'd like to know, not 'cos I'm nosey
or interfering (sp?) but because it could help someone else if they found
themselves in a similar situation (whatever that was).  I can't begin to
imagine what turmoil he must have been in.

Your own personal point is just another great story in the long list that
seems to be there.  I'm amazed that so many people have lovely personal
stories to tell about him.  I never met the man but like everyone else, had
total admiration and respect for him as a "proper" professional footballer.
 I don't think I've ever witnessed the amount of love and admiration for
any other "celebrity", let alone footballer.

It certainly will be a strange, emotional day on Saturday.  I personally
would prefer a minutes silence as I find it better for someone you want to
think about etc.  this could then be followed by a minutes applause - along
with a big-screen montage - to celebrate him.  Whatever they decide, I'm
sure it will be fitting and I'll be glad to be there.

Still can't believe it.  God knows how his family and close friends are
managing.

Hope you've found peace Gary.
