It is my sad duty to have to inform you all that the classicamiga member Sarek2k (Mark) lost his wife Maxine over Christmas.
She suffered a brain anurism and stroke.
He is understandably taking a step back from the Amiga community, Amibay, OldSkoolUk and computers in general, to re-evaluate his life.
From Mark:
"My wife Maxine died on the 13th of January, myself and Maxine's brother & sister in law where with her when she died and the only tiny good thing is it was nice and peaceful and she didn't suffer too much @ the end.
The Funeral took place last week and many people attended."
I was truly shocked when I found this out today and it was a big shock.
My condolences go out to Mark and his family, and I hope he is OK and has loved ones close by to help him in this difficult time.
I'm not sure we can do anything, but I have said that if he needs any help he just needs to ask. My thoughts, and I'm sure those of everyone here, are with him.
I think it a good idea to send him a card and if any of you also wish to do the same please PM me and I can give you his details, or you can send them to me to forward on to him.
