Subject: [LU] Sad news

Maybe not many people on the list know will remember Andrew Keogh. He was only 
occasionally on the list and never posted. However he was a lifelong Leeds 
supporter. Back in the days of yore (otherwise known as the 60's and start of 
the Glory Years) Andrew, Tim Greenwood (who is on the list) and I as youthful 
teenagers all lived in Harrogate and apart from common political interests we 
shared a passion for Leeds and regularly made that pilgrimage together to 
Elland Road. Though we have gone our various ways, Tim in the states for the 
last 30 years, Andrew in London and me all over the place the passion for Leeds 
has never died. Andrew has brought up both his boys to support Leeds.

Andrew sadly died a week last Saturday. His GP had referred him to hospital in 
March when he couldn't work out what was causing Andrew's back problems. The 
hospital diagnosed lung cancer which had spread to a secondary cancer in the 
bones. After radiotherapy he was sent home but was soon back in hospital, then 
to a care home but had to go to (another) hospital. During this period I had 
managed to get over a see him a few times. Then a week last Thursday he was 
moved to a hospice so I arranged to come over and see him again but he died on 
the Saturday. I am now over for the funeral tomorrow. Maybe not everyone but 
several of us there will be wearing Leeds United scarves.

Andrew,you will be missed. May you take a bit of Leeds and Gods Own County with 
you.

Marching on together
Guy
