    I haven't been on the forum for ages and just found the sad news about squeaky's death. I am so sorry, he was such a kind person.

    Condolences to his family. RIP squeaky.
    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).

    Like many I didn't know Squeakybut it is a name I recognise from posts. As has already been said I frequently use the old style indexes.

    My love and thoughts go to his family and friends and those on here who 'knew' him well.

    RIP Squeaky another star shines brightly in the sky tonight

    Only just spotted this.

    RIP Squeaky, you were a lovely person that always took the time to help others. I'll never forget the help you gave me. Thank you.

    Such sad news - I was lucky enough to meet Squeaky when 7 or 8 of us had an Old Style meet up in Blackpool in 2006. We had a great day out and I was so pleased to put a face to the name, he was every bit as nice as I expected him to be.

    Old Style was a different place back then as there were recipes and tips in random places and he was a driving force in gathering it up and grouping it to make it function properly as a reference library of useful and invaluable information and experience.

    I hope that MSE mark his passing with something permanent to recognise the work he put in.

    I remember the Blackpool meet-up too A-T. Squeaky was a lovely, gentle man. He was very generous with his knowledge and was very helpful to many people on the forums. RIP a lovely man.

    I've been absent from MSE Old Style for a while, but was once a regular poster and Squeaky was a great gentleman.

    If it weren't for his indexes, and the contributions to them, I'm not sure I'd ever have learnt to cook!

    Many thanks for everything, RIP Squeaky.
