annie Report post Posted February 16, 2008 (edited) We have been informed by Mrs P of the sad loss earlier today of her husband, Ken (Phasmid). Phas was a big part of this forum for several years and the help and support he offered hugely benefited all. He will be sadly missed. We offer our heartfelt condolences to Mrs P and her family at this tragic time.

Frangipani Report post Posted February 16, 2008 (edited) UPDATE: This message was posted by the Moderator of the other Forum. Mrs P has asked me to pass on some tragic news. Ken, aka Phasmid, died last night. The cause is unknown at the moment, but I understand that they think it was a heart attack. Ken has always been one of the more knowledgeable, supportive and helpful people I have known on the internet. I remember seeing him on the TES Forums as well as being a moderator at the Asperger and ASD UK Forum. I've no doubt that he has helped hundreds, if not thousands of people over the past few years. He's gone without any of us having a chance to thank him. I've told Mrs P of my personal sorrow and sympathy for her - I am sure that others would like to as well. You can use this thread or send Mrs P a personal message. GOM Mrs P I am very sad to hear of your loss Phas was a great help to me when I first joined this forum - and what a guy! Always there to help others in every way possible. My heart and sympathies goes out to you, your children and the rest of the Phas family. Take care <'> you are in my thoughts at this sad time. Love Fran / or Hallyscomet as you remember me Edited February 16, 2008 by Frangipani Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emum Report post Posted February 16, 2008 I am really sorry for your loss, Mrs P. I used to read the forum and post a lot while you and Phasmid were regular contributors, and pop in much less now that you have moved on. Phasmid was always a constant source of good advice and humour, and as others have said he offered me good advice on education issues when I needed it (as did you). I felt I knew him, even though it was only a virtual relationship. I know he will be much missed in his real life, as in his on-line one. I will be thinking of you and all the children over the days to come. Emum Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
