Tragic news. Certainly recognise him from games. Thoughts are with his family. RIP
Only just seen this. Just tragic. Make every day count people.
Not sure if this has been previously mentioned but how about sending a wreath or donation to a chosen charity on behalf of all his friends on SkyBluesTalk
If anybody knows when the funeral is and where I can see if something can be sorted?
I have never had to do anything like that but happy to see if something Sky Blue can be added (if it's within the permission of his family)
Think that’s a good idea and would be happy to contribute. Any excess could go to family or charity depending on their wishes?
@Spud Gun can you chip in here as it seems you know the family: would a card/wreath be appropriate? Can you liaise with Nick/Mark and sort something?
Hi Nick
Happy to contribute
Maybe a Sky Blue Talk ( in words) wreath
As previously mentioned it should all be with family approval
Hi everyone, family and close friends have seen this thread and I can't describe how much it means to us.
Just so you know, the funeral is tomorrow (they live in N. Ireland and they don't mess about there) so there's not been time to do much planning of any kind. However, we will all be wearing some sky blue and this is NOT his final send off. When the COVID situation is under control we will have a proper celebration of his life and I'll absolutely be in touch then.
Thank you all so much.

Hope it goes okay tomorrow. Deepest condolences to his family and friends. Tragic.
Awful news, RIP to one of our ownThis is incredibly difficult to write.
Wayne Harrison, a very active contributor to this forum and lifelong Sky Blues fan passed away suddenly this week. Out of nowhere, at the age of 43, he suffered a brain aneurysm and didn't make it. He leaves behind a wife and young son as well as a void that will be felt by many.
He loved his football club and I know how much he enjoyed the interaction on here.
Life is short everyone.

He was annoyingly positive and passionate! ha
Even if we were 3-0 down and people were having meltdowns he was still very positive and optimistic. I wish a lot more (me included) were as positive sometimes.

Very tough time for all his family and friends
Did Wayne have a particular charity that was close to his heart.
People have meltdowns when the team sheet comes out most weeks (myself included). You have to take your hat off to him, he never brought into that nonsense!
Spud gun said he was a supporter of Cystic fibrosis charities. Just donated here if any one else is interested:

This is so sad. Sorry, this maybe late but my heartfelt condolences to his wife and his family.
