May 21stDenis Faulkner - SS - has had a stroke this morning. He has been transferred to RMH for clot retrieval surgery which can work very well.
Lets hope for the best. He was in good form at Hash on Monday.

SS update.
I visited Denis today, in RMH. June and a few family members were there.
Unfortunately Denis remains with right sided face, arm and leg paralysis, despite interventions. It is very sad.
He will come back to Ballarat BH acute stroke unit when a bed is available. The doctors are expecting some improvement, - how much remains to be seen,
On On. Rowdy.

It’s with a heavy heart I write this post …
I received a call from June’s daughter Lindy just now to tell me that SS passed away peacefully this evening.
He was wearing his Hash top and had his Hash 80th birthday top at the end of his bed.
Hash was such a big part of his life and, as our elder stateman, certainly was a treasured and respected member of the Ballarat Hash House Harriers and the broader Hash community.
He will be deeply missed by us all.
Our thoughts and condolences are with June, his daughter Sarah and their families.
On On SS

Hi All
This is such sad news.
SS’s last run in the book was 1943. His birth year was 1941. No one has ever been close to a run number matching the year of their birth such is the legend of the man.
I am wondering as a mark of respect tomorrow night at 1943hrs (17 mins to 8pm) we could stop for a minutes silence & reflection.
On on

Update: June gladly accepted the condolences book from Hash. The only bad news is we didn't have time to proof read it.
The only bad news further explored: after many a beer and Hash writing in it, I couldn't guarantee there was no spelling errors, excessive swear words or slurs.
But she was grateful none the less, even with the warning.
