Sad news

I'd long hoped that I would never have to write this post.

Most of you will have varying levels of familiarity with Chris Turner, known to most as Laton or Choma.

For just over a year, Chris has been struggling to beat a rare form of Lymphoma, which has taken him through seemingly endless bouts of chemotherapy, countless drugs and more recently a stem cell transplant.

Just before Christmas, the doctors discovered that the Lymphoma had returned and that there would be nothing more that they could do for him.

Its my sad duty to tell you all that Chris passed away peacefully in his sleep in the early hours of saturday morning (19th January).

He will be very sorely missed by many of us.

No, that's someone else.
Chris's characters were Choma, Laton, Ione, Athene

Met Choma/Laton a few times in RL and played with him quite abit a few years back when i was in DCL. Choma was a class bloke and will be deeply missed, deepest regards to his family and all the best.

You'll always be remered bud.
