Pegi Young 66.

Young met future husband Neil Young in 1974 when she was working as a waitress at a diner near his ranch, a story he tells in the 1992 song "Unknown Legend". They married in August 1978 and had two children, Ben and Amber, in addition to her becoming stepmother to his first child, Zeke.] Both Ben and Zeke are diagnosed with cerebal palsy, and Amber with epilepsy [n July 2014, Neil filed for divorce in California.

So sad in the world of rock and roll I thought their marriage was so solid.

With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!

Diane Oxberry BBC northwest. 

:O

That's very sudden, she was still working just before Christmas and she's not that old, just 51. :sad:

Caught the end of North West Tonight earlier, very moving tributes to Dianne Oxberry and Annabelle Tiffen struggling (and failing) to hold back the tears.

Hope it's ok to post now. Still a little hope but it's not looking good.

Its so sad, a real tragedy.  He had everything to look forward to. Terrible for his parents and family too. 

I think by now a little hope may be an exaggeration.

So sad for all the others involved also.

Yes, I've been following this online, and if they haven't yet been picked up in such a busy shipping channel, the chances of rescue have gone from slim to none.

Me too. It's looking bleak now. He was clearly very well thought of in Nantes.

It's so sad to think that a decision to move clubs may have cost him his life. It reinforces how fragile life can be. Of course also we never know how many times we have escaped it. 

Very tragic.

Has the pilot even been named? Much like the Leicester helicopter tragedy I'm annoyed other lives are getting pushed to one side.

I haven’t seen but that could be because family haven’t been informed and/or don’t want it disclosed.
