Loss of an OWL


Recommended Posts

Another Owl has been taken too young, losing his battle against cancer today. Steve Ball. RIP

 

Some of you may know him from his online presence, most recently on Facebook groups, or even in person, but he has been on many other forums too with heartfelt and sometimes controversial opinions but a lifelong Owls fan who was a neighbour when we were growing up and a friend for nearly 50 years.

 

Steve took me to my first Wednesday game and also to see Santos in 71.

 

He and his family have shown great courage and dignity this past year during his fight.

 

I last saw Steve and his son before and after the playoff final and it was particularly moving seeing them after the game both knowing that Steve would not see his beloved team return to the top flight. I think our defeat hurt them much more than most of us.

 

 

Steve Ball RIP
