Very Sad News
« on: July 04, 2007, 09:57:15 am »
Ruth from the OC has posted up some very sad news that Paul Bartolo has died :( Cause of death is not confirmed as an autopsy is being awaited.

I cant beleive it, I am genuinly shocked.....I was only getting the usual great advice from him a week or two ago.....he was the origional inspiration for my car. He`ll be greatly missed. A Teriffic bloke, always helpfull and full of very friendly advice. One of the Origional staff members of the EC.

RIP Paul 

Condolences to his friends and family.

I absolutely cannot believe this :-(

I have known Paul and Yvonne for many years. Paul was a truly generous and selfless person who will be sorely missed by many many people in and out of the car world.
