Of Gary Ashbrook

Gary - profile name 'ASHBROOKS123' - died on Sunday 13th May 2007 while playing alone.
He had got hold of some Nitrous Oxide and use a bag over his head to breath it in. The gas sent him to sleep and the bag suffocated him
Gary had not had an easy life and he had been left HIV+ after an encounter that went sadly wrong.
He had finally found happiness in Brighton and was slowly rebuilding his future.
Gary's Funeral took place in Brighton Friday 26th May 2007
A subsequent hearing into Gary's death recorded a verdict of Misadventure

Gary was planning on raising funds for the Sussex Beacon, having spent some time there shortly before he died.
Paul, My No1, did a sponsored run to raise money in Gary's Memory for the Sussex Beacon in August
He raised £1055 - thanks to everyone who sponsored him
