I was on the shore of the lough when he died. It’s a memory that will be with me forever. I watched the whole thing from the shore, unable to do anything. He was not a good swimmer but jumped in from the boat, expecting to be caught by Bob Johnson (deceased), but he slipped out of Bob’s arms and went under. He evidently panicked. It was horrible to watch. He occupied the room next to me. A great footballer and mathematician.
God rest his soul.
