Founding member of the Clan has left us

[Monaro5.7]

Just a wee note to all the Clan and forum members.

I have just heard that Kyle Stock (K15TOX) has passed away at the weekend. I have posted on his Facebook page our thought go our to his family and friends but i just wanna say he was a good guy and iam glad i meet him.

Kyle was a founding member of the Scottish guys meeting once a month and we have been meeting now for over 2 years.

Mind the first meet in a car park freezing and going to Macdonalds for our meal, we have come a long way but thanks mate for dragging me and Roger out that nite.

R.I.P Kyle

Just got texted about this. Rememeber too that Kyle was a serviceman who put himself in harms way for our safety and security and IIRC did at least one tour in Afganistan. For that he has all our sincere respect. Again, I'm sorry to hear of the circumstances and at such a young age. Hope the family can be supported all round, even from an effort on here maybe?

Can anyone find out what the arrangements are? I'd like to go up there as a mark of my respect.

GSD text me this morning and told me and he is in contact with a family member about the details of the funeral. Will ask for him to post them up.

Never had the oppurtunity to meet but we are all one big family here. My thoughts are with the family in this sad time. How about some kind of send off on the national meet? Maybe to far away but just a thought.

This had crossed my mind but what?

[Monaro5.7]

Guys iam sure we can do something. I have found this and maybe someone knows the road? Could see if there is flowers at roadside we could get a some for the roadside?

Monaro no offence meant as everyone grieves in their own way however I am very against putting flowers etc at the scene. Would much rather we all put our time and money to better use such as a fund for his little one and missus or a charity of his families choice.

Yeah mate that we have come up with throw texting a few members.

Kyle and his Monaro having fun.

I think setting something up for his child would be nice, and better than flowers (IMHO)

Yeah totally agree mate

rest in pease my best buddy. I've grown up with Kyle and he was like my brother, and was my car brother, many a happy time especially out in the monaro and camaro. He was very much loved and a genuine lad. We are all thinking of his family and his girlfriend. I will ask the family about donations guys, thanks for all your kind words

Yeah I mind Kyle talking about you and the camaro, he once tried to get us to meet up for some V8 fun.

Mate ur help will be great as there loads of people wanna help.

Kyle was a top bloke and will be missed.

have you asked when and where the funeral will be and whether or not they wish to keep it private? Pretty sure a few on here may try to attend if possible.

re their wish for it to celebrate his life, I sadly have already attended the funeral of one of the members on here and had to restrain myself from laughing out loud when they brought in the coffin to the theme from top gear - it was just perfect for occasion and the man in question. Although a sad event that set the mood for the day and his friends and colleagues were able to give him the send off he'd have wanted.

I would attend if i can get enough notice to get the time of work and i know Roger is keen to know when it is aswell. so i will keep checking here and my phone GSD will let us know A.S.A.P

[Monaro5.7]

Yip I have the time off and Stevie might coming aswell, no heard from Bob yet tho.

Gareth like ur idea about a trophy and was thinking something along that line for the national meet.

But now you said that thinking.

"Kyle Stock memorial trophy for outstanding contrabution"

And could be handed out each year to someone who has made made a real effort for the forum.
