Michael John Sainsbury

Died this morning after a 7 year long battle against bowel cancer.

The way I choose to remember him most fondly is after taking him on the 'Pepsi Max Big One' at Blackpool - he could not contain his excitment and drove every one of us almost potty with his enthusiasm. That and the episode with the Top Hat when getting measured for the wedding suits...

Who will I be able to take to concerts in the future, we went to see Jean Michel Jarre at Manchester, Eric Clapton at the NEC, The Corrs at the NEC and he was always so excited... He was the Father I never had myself. He will be badly missed by all those he leaves behind.
