ohh, that's very sad news - though he leaves a huge legacy that will live on for many generations

Such a true gentleman, and such a loss for Minidom and all of Motorsport.
I met him at a Mini Meet, and was honored to just hang around for a few minutes and get an autograph. He really made folks feel at home, just as you'd expect.
RIP, Paddy!
