View Full Version : About Lex.
I'm not  sure i'm putting this in the right place, but i'm sure that someone will move it anyway.
Hello everyone, my name is Alex and i've just dropped in to let you know that my father (who you know as Lex) sadly passed away at four minutes past three am on Wednesday the 20th August. He peacefully passed away in his sleep after a very short illness, which has many contributing factors, (but as he would have said himself, basically old age.)
He will be missed fantastically by all who knew him, including his ten children, his nineteen grandchildren, his twenty four great grandchildren and his four great great grandchildren, not to mention other family members and his countless friends and acquaintances. 
The reason that i'm leaving this message is that I know that my dad has spent many happy hours over the last few years , talking and arguing with you guys. And as  I know just how important that his chosen forums and friends there were to him , that he would have wanted me to pop in here to thank you guys for the friendship that he treasured on this (and the other three forums that he was on), and to wish you all well, and bid you a last fond farewell.
Thank you , yours sincerely Alex.
Dreadfully sorry to hear that, I always loved his humour and his insight

Oh God Im so sorry for your familys loss Alex.
Lex was a great poster and will be sorely missed by a lot of people on here.
Always passionate about big brother we both fought each others corner and occasionally clashed over opposing opinions about the show as well. I always came away with nothing but respect for Lex's sense of fun and obvious love of the show and enjoyment in posting on here about it.
Lex made a real impression on here i spoke to him a lot and i will miss him sorely. :(
R.I.P Lex.

Sorry to hear about your father, it's going to be tough stay strong alex.
Lex...
May the blessed sunlight shine on you 
like a great peat fire, 
so that strangers and friends may come 
and warm themselves at it.
And may light shine out of the two eyes of you, 
like a candle set in the window of a house, 
bidding the wanderer come in out of the storm.
And may the blessing of the rain be on you, 
may it beat upon your Spirit 
and wash it fair and clean, 
and leave there a shining pool 
where the blue of Heaven shines, 
and sometimes a star.
And may the blessing of the earth be on you, 
soft under your feet as you pass along the roads, 
soft under you as you lie out on it, 
tired at the end of day;
and may it rest easy over you 
when, at last, you lie out under it.
May it rest so lightly over you 
that your soul may be out 
from under it quickly;
up and off and on its way to Heaven.
And now may Spirit bless you, 
and bless you kindly.
omg his sig was Brilliant, R.I.P :sad:

I remember him a few months ago saying to me that he reckons that he doesn't have much longer left to live.
He was a great laugh on the forum and he'll be sadly missed on here and obviously with his family, R.I.P Lex, I hope that you're in a happy place.

I am so sorry to hear this. I always enjoyed reading Lex's posts as they were always a good read and thought and clearly gone into them. I was particularly interested when I realised how old he was, as it's not what I would have expecting on a bb forum, which for me was quite intriguing.
Sorry for your loss Alex and thank you for letting us know the sad news. Rip Lex

Really sad to hear of this, I loved his posts in BB this year.Thankfully I have a really nice message from him sent to me in early August.
Thank you for letting us know, we have lost some great members in the last couple of years and Lex is another.

This is very sad news but WOW! you're one of ten children he had nineteen grandchildren, his twenty four great grandchildren and his four great great grandchildren?
He must have been very loved.
He was a great forum member, never afraid to speak his mind. I actually thought he was a youngster.
Rest in peace mate and condolences to the family XxX
To the forum mods maybe we could have a minute silence for him?
MY SYMPATHYS GO OUT TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ALEX.
Your dad was a very fair and funny man and I would always enjoy reading his views on bb and it's residents.
