Farewell Sprocket

[Symphony]

Sprocket, our driver for many years, sadly passed away recently after battling against the after effects of a stroke a few years back. He was a great guy, tough as old boots and always called a spade a spade.

There were numerous times on the road where Sprocket got us out of serious issues at customs or when pulled over by the Police in Germany haha! Good times.

On a personal level, nothing was ever too much trouble and I was very grateful for that on a number of occasions.

On the road Sprocket, Rich, Paul and I often shared rooms and it's sobering to think that there are only 2 of us left.

No doubt Sprocket will be up there now with Paul and yelling like he always did...Get in the fucking van! Haha!

Rest easy brother and thank you for all you did for us. Until we meet again beyond the blue horizon.

Now there's a name I haven't heard in a good long while. Says a lot about the guy that the mention sticks out in these old dusty neurons. Thank you for sharing about him Steve, sounds like there's a lot of fond, eventful memories for a trusted bloke there. RIP Sprocket, you kept the quest going & we appreciate you

I thought here is a good place to post about such news. As you know, I haven't done social media for a number of years now so here seems to be the logical place for me to post - along with the PQ website. Like you Dom, I'm sure some folk will be interested to know.
