Rest in Peace the legendary Steve9872

I don't have many details but his passing was due to cancer.

Steve was a true legend on this forum and will be sadly missed.

This is so sad. It's terrible when a well known personality passes on, it hits even harder when it's an esteemed member of this community 😞

May Steve rest in peace.
He will be dearly missed.

This is such sad news. He was very kind to me when I first joined fmuk, he sent me a few messages about how to book films & where to post on the site about various things. May he rest in peace.

I've been absent from fmuk for too long but had to leave a post once I saw the shocking news. Hope everyone's doing OK. My thoughts are with everyone.
Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
