Wg Cdr Steve Dziuba RAF

It is with great regret and personal sadness that I post that Steve Dziuba lost his eighteen month battle with cancer in the early hours of this morning - Sunday 15th January.
Steve died at home, peacefully and painlessly, with Chris (and the dogs!) in attendance. RIP.
Steve was not an aviator, but was known and respected by many who are. He well qualifies for a place here as "one of those without whom"...
Exact funeral arrangements and date are not yet known, but the funeral will be at Shawbury. I will post details here when known for the benefit of those no longer serving.
Anyone is welcome to contact me, by PM or any other means, for more details.

An inspiration to us all, Steve has fought like a lion these last 18 months. He never gave up and was always hopeful. Such a sad loss

A good man and an excellent leader. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him. I will lift a large glass of Malt tonight. Deepest condolences to his family.
