Sad news

[Nigel]

Hi, I am posting this on behalf of my father Nigel. It's with a heavy heart that I have to let you know that he passed away last week. I know woodworking and carpentry were a large part of his life and he spoke highly of several good friends he had made via this forum (and at the various shows and events) so I just wanted to inform those who knew him and chatted/conversed with him about all things wood related (and likely plenty of other subjects too).

Best wishes to you all for keeping Dad happy and busy over the years.

Kind regards,

Alex Turnbull (Nigel's son)

So sorry to hear that sad news Alex, we were only in e-mail communication mid February, thanks for letting us know.
He and my Wife Di always had a round of good humoured banter about his shinny tool purchases.

Its hard to loose a loved one, as I know. But it helps to remember the good times had with them over the years. I'm sure things are looking black now, but time does heal. Our thoughts are with you.
