I would like to extend my condolences to you all.

I have kept out of this thread because, being a newcomer, I felt it was probably personal.
I have only just caught up with the sad news because of the thread about the recipes, which I think is a wonderful idea.

I did not have the priveledge of getting to know your freind, but I am touched by your loss.
A long time ago I lost someone I knew only through Newsgroups, and the whole group did something personal in his memory, also for the Macmillan Charity. It is heartwarming to know that online communities still have a heart.

It was the least I could do for such a fine man

Im hoping to go to the funeral, and stand at the back so as not to intrude and later I will ask Kathy which was Georges favourite tree and then Ill plant one for him on my land so as long as that tree is there George will never be forgotton.

So sorry to read about Wizard, my thoughts are with George's family.
He'll be much missed on here

Wiz man.......   Such sad sad news.  I'm so gutted I never got to meet George. We had planned to meet up. I was busy & then he fell ill.
Even though I didn't meet him I will never forget the little chats we had. He was a genuine nice guy.
My thoughts are with you & your family Kath.

Such a sad sad loss

Such sad news.

I too didnt know him well, only through words on the forum here, on reading it truly sounds like he made a positive mark on alot of peoples lives he should be proud.

May god bless his soul and he rest in peace knowing he has shared so much.

Thoughts goes to all who will miss him.

[knightquest]

That was a great post Jackie.

I didn't know him for long but I REALLY miss him.............

Please let us know what his favourite tree was Jackie and I'll plant one too. Even if I move house, I'll plant one there too! His spirit will be with us forever. 

Don't believe in God but George will be at one with nature now more than ever. Thank you for everything Wizard!

Wizard truely was an inspiration to all newcomers to smallholding, he achieved so much in his life and will be greatly missed, offered me some great advice about starting out and that will never be forgotten!  RIP Wizard

Have had a long break from the forum however can remember a lot of wizards early posts, certainly made me think with the funny replys and vast knowledge of many subjects RIP george...........a real character

[ser3dan]

As another newbie I only had a few conversations with George, but he was a real fount of knowledge about smallholding, and will be sadly missed.
Rest in peace George, you can be at one with nature now.

If David or kath is reading this. Do you feel that you can tell us the funeral details and would any of us be welcomed? Maybe you will just be having a family only private funeral. In any case our thoughts will be with you on the day. Sheila xx

[Roxy]

Yes, if it were possible, it would be nice for someone off  this forum to be there,  to represent the rest of us

[Jackie]

Im gonna ring Kath today to find out the details and if anyone other than the family would be welcome. If we are then hubby and I shall go.

Ditto what SteveMo said. Found out through the recipe idea.  I am so sorry to hear this sad news.  The short time I have been on here I've enjoyed his banter too.

Send our love to the family Jackie.  Great idea about the tree.  If you can let me know what his favourite was I will plant one down here too.
