Jack Charlton RIP
The legendary Newcastle and Leeds united former player has died aged 85,after a battle with dementia.
Jack and his wife Pat have been my customers for a lot of years,I never really had much to do with him as I'm not into football or fishing, he did a lot of things for his home town of Ashington and other good causes around the north east.ironically I was just at the house on Thursday chatting to Pat and I noticed Jack was not in his usual seat on the sofa in the living room but thought nothing more of it. I had noticed that he was not the man he used to be over recent months, a few times they were either going out or coming in when I was there and I always said "hello Jack",and the last couple of times Pat has had to say,"Richard was saying hello to you Jack" to get him to respond.He was a big bloke as in tall, with a big personality too.
Another great British legend gone.
