    Simon T - update

    Hi everyone
    I have just received this email from Simon's sisters. I think it says it all.

    Hi Jim

    Just been catching up with the thread so thought I’d drop you a message - thanks to you and to everyone who took part in the group build. What a lovely tribute.

    Thanks too for recommending Models for Heroes for Si’s stash - they’re going to have all his unopened models, books, tools etc which we’re really pleased about.

    Sal and Jo

    I think our little group has done the memory of our friend proud, he deserved no less. Thanks and well done to you all.

              That's good news Jim. Mr T would have been over the moon to have known all his modelling gear had gone to such a great cause. Many thanks for the update

                  Thank you Jim.

                  I hope his models can be the cause of happiness to others that it brought to him.

                              A few years ago, I think it was when Models for Heroes were just getting off the ground, they appealed for kits for the veterans. Simon went into his loft immediately and sent off a parcel so I know it was an enterprise he supported. Quite a few modellers on the forum have a military background or military connections and so Models for Heroes is very appropriate as a home for Simon's vast amount of loft insulation.
                              If you haven't heard of the project take a look - so very worthwhile. MODELS FOR HEROES
