It is my sad duty to report
the Death of Phil Kaye on Tuesday this week. He served aboard
the Fighting 47 86-88 ish as an AB(S) and will be well missed by
the Danae Boy’s of the same period. He left the Mob last
October and joined the RAN early this year. Talking to his
wife, Linda, yesterday she informed me that he played football
in the afternoon and then she picked him up and took him home.
It was there that he spoke about a pulled muscle in his chest.
He then said that he felt sick and that was pretty much it. By
the time he arrived at A&E his brain had already been severely
starved of oxygen and that along with 8 resuscitations would
have seen to it that he remained a vegetable had he survived.
He fell into a coma and sadly passed away on Tuesday.
The world will be
such a poorer place without this fantastic Guy.
