Re: Vincent RavenHill's Passing

I am absolutely saddened to hear of Vinny's death. He was a cheerio chap. Vinny was very dedicated to his work so much so that he often work very long hours for Swissport.........It sometimes caused headaches as we all know what can happen when one is not well rested. But Vinny still gave it his all when called upon..... Swissport better give him more than a wreath...I suggest contribute to his funeral...seeing he put so much effort in at work..
My thoughts and prayers are with his family and hope they find comfort soon.........

R I P Vincent


Does anyone knows when is the funeral and where????

Great send off for a great bloke, I think he would have been stunned by the number of people who turned up to pay their respects. RIP.
