Very sad news indeed. He was a fine fellow and will be fondly remembered
I first met him at 2376 (Bamber Bridge) Squadron Air Training Corps many many years ago and it was by following his lead that I ended up with a career in ATC. For a while he played guitar (badly!!) in a band that we were in together, and I have some fantastic photos of us both with proper indie haircuts. Those who knew Steve when he was younger will remember that he had a Neds Atomic Dustbin haircut with a gigantic fringe!! It was through Steve that I ended up getting into the early 90s indie scene and also developed a strong passion for goth bands like The Mission and The Sisters Of Mercy and indie bands like The Wonder Stuff. For that, and for career advice and encouragement I will forever be in his debt.
My deepest condolences go out to his wife and children and to his parents.
RIP Steve Yeowart
