I received a message on FB this morning telling me that Quaz died suddenly yesterday.

Quaz, Andrew Page, was only 43.

I plan to send a card to his parents and two children, so if anyone would like to include a message, please either PM me here or FB.

Very sorry to hear that. I've just checked his posts and the guy was excellent. :-(

Such terrible news. Andrew was one of the funniest, craziest, friendliest writers on here.

Have a browse: These are just the Quaz stories that made the Front Page.

Large ones all round in the Snug tonight.

Sad news. Obviously first thoughts are with his family.

A writer of some funny stuff and always found him welcoming and warm whenever we spoke on here and elsewhere.

I would normally say RIP but feel awarding Quaz 5 last stars is more appropriate.

A long lasting, consistently excellent contributor, tragic. It's strange how you can feel genuine loss for someone you've never met. 43 just makes you go cold.

I've just heard the news from Rick. What a loss. Quaz comes from the days before the new scoring system, so ********** for the memories.

Our biscuit barrel just became a little less sweet. Enormous love and good wishes to the family Quaz - I'm sure we'll all hold our loved ones a little closer today.

**** (the one-star troll sends his condolences, Quaz. Sleep well.)

43. Shit.

@c_h: "It's strange how you can feel genuine loss for someone you've never met." yep. He made me laugh.

Jeni - I've nothing else worthwhile to add to comments above. Will you be able to wrap up assorted biscuit sentiments in your card(s)?

I've never met the guy, yet dying's probably the first thing he's done that didn't make me laugh.

One of the good guys.
He did more than his fair share to make this a happy place to be.
Now he touches us in another way.

Charity is a good plan. Be nice to get some cash doing good in Quaz's name.
