Daniel Cadman HEITS
Morning all, most of you will never have heard of this young man, who, aged 32, sadly passed away suddenly having collapsed as he got out of his vehicle on monday of this week. He worked for our local builders merchants here in presteigne on the welsh borders, and I often spoke to him about our mutual love of our great club, and he was often at villa park to watch our usual unfolding nightmares!.
He leaves behind a wife and two young children who are, of course, completely devastated. A fund me type page has been set up in his name to try to help them, which I noted has been published on "another villa site", so I hope its ok to highlight on here, Im fairly **** at tech so have no idea how to link it, but if you would like to help I think you just type fundme and his name for details.
Thanks for reading

I'm so sorry to hear that, OldSkool. That's awful. I can't imagine what his family are going through right now.
I've made a little donation.
For anyone else, here's the link: https://www.gofundme.com/
Just type Daniel Cadman in the search bar to find it.

Many thanks for the tech help and the donation, it will be much appreciated Im sure. The family are doing their best I guess, it was his youngests first day of school monday, and, of course, they pulled him out early because of what had happened, I have no idea how anyone copes with that situation, but thankfully this is a small and fairly tight knit community who will rally round and give of their best for them.

Oh they are so welcome. It really wasn't much. I just did it as an anonymous donation as they don't know me - I was going to write from a Villa fan, but I didn't see where to leave a comment until after I sent it. I'm not much of a teccie either.
That's lovely that you live in a tight knit community who are rallying round and who will support the family as best they can. I was looking at the comments and people seem to have been very supportive and kind.
It's heart breaking to hear about his child's first day at school. What a terrible thing to go through on what should be a memorable big day.
They are all in my thoughts xxx

What a tragedy, so young - good to hear the community are there for the family, they will need them in the weeks and months ahead - RIP.
Is it worth contacting the club to promote the gofundme at the Southampton game and get a minute's applause on 32mins?
I'll donate too Oldskool

Thats not a bad idea WCV though it would need to be 33rd minute, cos Im a senile old git and got Daniels age wrong! I might talk to the chap who brought it up on "the other villa site" as now Ive worked out who he is, is close to the family and also a regular at Villa Park. Thanks to all who have responded/donated, its good to be reminded sometimes how special the villa family can be.

Hope you're ok too OSV by the way buddy.
