Steve Cole – GW4BLE

Steve – taken early Nov’16

It is with deep regret that the Newport Amateur Radio Society has to announce the passing of Mr Steve Cole, GW4BLE, who passed away in the early hours of Friday 2nd December 2016.

Our thoughts are with his family – Mandy, his wife, Adam, his son, Alison, his daughter-in-law, and his grandson William.

Steve was an active member of our club, and known by many around the world, an expert DX’er. His last contest being CQ World Wide (ssb) and telling us all he was ‘just having a play’. He loved all things radio and his enthusiasm was infectious.

Rest in peace Steve, you will be missed by all who knew you. It was indeed a privilege to know you and to call you a friend.

from all at the Newport Amateur Radio Society – GW4EZW.
