Like the rest of you I am deply saddened to hear of the passing of Eifion. It truly was an Honour and a pleasure to have served with him. His sense of duty and loyalty within the Regiment was second to none and his commitment to every job he did, was total. I had the un-enviable task of following his footsteps firstly in the Signal Platoon and then the QMs. ( I say un-enviable because he was an impossibly hard act to follow). Never a worry though, as his handovers were always perfect and he would always make himself available to lend a guiding hand and an attentive ear. He had a wonderful sense of humour and a remarkable ability get away with remarks that would earn the majority of us a slap in the face. Eifion was my Peer, my Boss, my Neighbour and one of my Best Friends . Wenna and the family are in our thoughts.

" He 's Singing in the Rhondda one more time" Godbless Eifion.
