Dear All

Hello

I remember Mr Errol Brown being the subject of the TV programme
"This is your life", broadcast mid 1990's.

What stood out for me, was the gentleness and the humility he had.

This was referred to by nearly all the surprise guests.

He was a great family man.

Rest in peace, Mr Brown and THANK YOU.


Sincere wishes
Elizabeth, EOS

There is nothing like Hot Chocolate to get the silver set out of their zimmer frames.

Not the most obvious of the songs to mention... but this has a special place and seems appropriate...because the music lives on and truly does 'hold you together' in times of need. RIP Errol

I rarely get terribly sad when somebody famous dies but this is an exception.

Talented, funny and seemingly honest. His voice was unique.

Sad he had to spend his last years fighting illness. He was a great singer, and will always be remembered for his wonderful songs.

Rest in peace, Errol

Even John Lennon (the one and only half talented member of that 60s beat combo) liked him.
