Bob .
Could you please pass on this sad news to other MOBIs
It is with sad news that I am informing you of the passing of Paul Birkenhead ex CPOATA3.

Paul leaves behind his wife Anne and his 2 daughters and son.
Funeral arrangements to follow when available.
A fellow MOBI now at rest
Thanks

Whilst I didn't know Paul, he's clearly another MOBI taken way too soon... [-(
