Really sad news.

Rest in Peace Gareth.

I hear 94 took his own life. This is doubly sad. If only 'our family' members who have troubles would speak to those they have served with in the past they might be able to help them deal with, or solve, their problems. The Regiment has a support system via Des Williams at RHQ. Perhaps some are too embarrased to ask for help. All must know they shouldn't be. God bless, Cow. You have been a wonderfully loyal soldier and will be sadly missed by all who knew you.

RIP Cow, sincere condolences to your family

Oh Lord. So sad in itself to read that 'Cow' had passed away, but then to read Bob Lloyd's entry was doubly saddening.

A character, a strong supporter of Regiment and Company and a damn hard grafter. Anyone from the Battalion in his day would have known him.

For his family, a loss which happens in such a way must be achingly sad and difficult to take in. Our thoughts are with them.
