I am writing to let you know that Kevin Thompson (who was a personal
friend) died on 10th December. You may wish to leave a message on his
talk page. At the moment there is no announcement of funeral arrangements.

He was a contributor to featured articles and articles of his locality
(Hackney) and London.
