Good morning Gentlemen,

I have been in touch with Maria, Archie's long-time partner, who asked me to post some words as a thank you to all of you who have known Archie or simply posted a little word on his farewell thread.

Maria is Brazilian so English is not her native language, but I think she does a perfectly good job of getting her point across, so I decided to simply copy and paste her exact words and not translate or edit anything.

My poor english is no' enough for to say for everybody how he was so happy everytime that he knows different places in the world and how he enjoy to talk with people in all the world, special when already had met or talked in the trucknet. Everytime that he show me places that he had visited in one of this places in the world he always was so pleased. David, please tell for them my thankful for the condolonces and I'm sure if he can see this where he is, he will be very glad. He left us so early. Rest in peace.


RIP Archie

Best regards to all
David

I've not heard whether there has been a funeral, I am assuming that there would have been an inquest due to the circumstances that contributed to Archie's death. Presumably he will be buried near his home in Yorkshire.

Hi Chazzer,

I was in touch with Archie's son Steve. Archie has already been cremated in Portugal, due to the various complexities associated with a repatriation to the UK.
However I understand that Steve's intention is to organise a small commemoration in Yorkshire in the coming weeks - I have offered to publish a communication on TN if he wished.
I don't have any further detail for the moment but will update this post as and when I have news.

Best regards
David

A lovely few words from Maria... All the more so for the slightly broken English.
Never met Archie but he sounds like he was an adventurer to the end.
R.I.P. ...

Sad news about Archie. I used to see him regularly when I was shunting for Wincanton at Maltby.He did some part time work for Ward Brothers at Malton and brought stock loads down for picking. We used to have some good craic and banter.
My condolences to his family.
RIP Archie.
Them were t'days when we were on neets.
