Say hello to Billy and Don for us all.
You will be sadly missed.

Well, so it's farewell to John Gramps Sykes.
Great blokes like this one don't come around that often, and I have always
had a soft spot for Gramps ever since the days of the Listers World website
(where in the world are the Listers?) when he claimed to be the only
Canadian lister!
This went furth
I'm 69. An interesting number and age.
There's a different perspective to GranPa Sykes.
He obviously loved what he did and had done.
You could always hear his enthusiasm. There was always the wisdom of
experience. He was never bitter.
He must have been proud to take his name 'Grand Pa'. So I guess

I am so saddened by this news even I can hardly
believe it. I will miss John, despite the fact
that I never met him, but he always spoke with a
passion for Leeds United and a love of all things
Yorkshire and Leeds in particular. The world is a
lesser place for the loss of him. My sincerest

Very sad news about Grampa Sykes. I've taken the liberty of changing the list
footers to mark John's passing. I know I will miss his contributions and our
off list conversations. I always think of John as being The Grandfather of the
list and I'm not sure he will be replaced. At 75 he was easily
this's probably one that won't get read out at his memorial ;)

Saddened by the loss of a long time list member and usually a voice of reason.
My condolences to his family both traditional and list wise.
May he have the best seat in the house from here onward.

Dear Brenda and Cindy
I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing, may he rest in peace.
Even from afar for so many years, John was always passionate about sport
and Leeds in particular. His contribution, as a self-appointed elder
spokesman was always intelligent, provocative and passionate.
Very sad to hear that. He was a lovely man, a very welcome part of the list.

Hello,
We are sorry to announce the passing of our father, John Sykes, on Nov. 12th.
It was unexpected and quick. He had been diagnosed with cancer and within two
weeks he was gone.
His love for Leeds United was deep. He was even talking about it , despite a
stroke that affected his speech.
