Steve Young

Unfortunatley we have been forced into this unpleasant position.

My husband and I wish to extend condolences to Steve Youngs wife, Julie. I understand they were not yet married, but imagine she would prefer the title. Also to his son, our deepest condolences. We were very deeply saddened to hear of his untimely death.

This is not what we wished to happen, instead prefering to send Julie a PM expressing our condolences once sufficient time has passed that it may only be appreciated by her and not cause feelings of pain and despair.

It is our right to express condolences how and when we see fit. Noone elses. To use this terrible death as a way to simply try and fulfill an ongoing effort to bring someone down is distasteful and terrible.

If Julie would like to know why we felt it better to avoid posting public condolences- she is welcome to ask us. It is her right and her right only.

The point of this thread is simply to express our condolences and to make clear our feelings. We will not respond to any replys on this thread.

Julie- we were truly sorry to hear of Steves death. He was a great man, and no doubt would have gone on to live an extremely full life. From his activity on the forum, we know that indeed, he did live a full life. All of our good wishes to you and to Haydn.
