My good friend, Mark, died last night. He collapsed (reasons unknown) and was injured during the fall, he was pronounced dead in hospital a couple of hours later.

I actually dated his daughter, Jessica, and used to play football with his son, Aaron, and Mark taught myself and Aaron how to play drums, me a while back and Aaron not long ago. It's tragic how someone so young can die so fast, it wasn't long ago that me and my girlfriend were at a party and speaking to Mark.

R.I.P. Mark Simkin - died 11th August 2008.
