Very Sad News - Sqad

[Prudie]

It’s with a very heavy heart that I have to tell you that Mrs Sqad has asked me to let you know that Sqad passed away on New Year’s Day. He had been quite unwell recently as many of you realised so now at peace. He used to really enjoy this site and I know most people had engaged with him at some time or another. I met them both several times in Menorca and have remained very good friends ever since. Sincere condolences to Mrs Sqad at such a difficult time, she really is the loveliest lady and Sqad really was an amazing husband to her. RIP my lovely.

That is such sad news.  Sqad advised me more than once.  Please send my condolences to his family.

Sad news indeed.

My sincere condolences to Mrs Sqad and family.

No way!! He took the time to help me on here with medical stuff. 

I didn't know his age or anything about him but will certainly miss him

Does anybody have anything funny to share with us about Sqad? As I'm sure we want to remember him fondly!

I have only just seen this, my condolences to Mrs Sqad and thanks to Sqad for his advice on any health problems in the past.

Prudie, has there been a funeral yet? I was just thinking about him..

[piggynose]

I hope this thread reaches at least 1000!🤞

[ladybirder]

I was wondering about his funeral as well.

piggynose, if Abbey had been invited to sqad's funeral and we had a 'What should I wear?' thread from her, it might just make 1000.

Lol barsel

Oh how sad. RIP Sqad!

[Prudie]

For those who might want to have a quiet reflect Sqad's funeral is at 2pm this Tuesday 30th Jan. It will be a very private cremation with no flowers but donations to British Heart Foundation.

I am unable to go but I will hopefully catch up via videolink. I know many of you liked Sqad or he helped you, also others who thought he was more negative things that I won't repeat but I've seen it all over the years. I've seen him receive lots of admiration and fondness and a deal of nastiness too. Away from the medical questions where he genuinely wanted to help a lot of what he said was sport to liven up discussion you know...

He and Mrs Sqad had a long and very happy marriage, they cared for each other deeply and are/were both actually lovely normal people.

Will be thinking of you both. Much love always.

Thank you Prudie, I have been wondering and thought maybe it had already happened. I'll be thinking of him on Tuesday ❤️

Thank you for this Prudie.

I already donate to BHF...but will add extra in February.

Thanks Prudie.  Nice words.  He is missed already here.  The last question I asked Sqad was one that I'd been trying for years to muster the courage to ask.  He, being as appreciative of the ladies as he was, I wondered if he'd ever actually been smitten and fallen in love?   The question made him laugh - but I finally got my answer.  Oh yes indeed.  He absolutely adored Mrs Sqad.  Much love to her.  x

I will be thinking of him too, he has given me very good advice 💓

[brainiac]

Is it possible for us to be told his real name?

[Rosetta]

Thank you Prudie I shall also be thinking of him and his family.

Brainiac, I dont think knowing his real name is a good idea, a few on here do know, but there are too many weirdos on the internet for it to known publicly
