I posted this on PA and thought I’d post here as well. My feelings on Raven and how I remember him.
The last time I spoke to Raven was about 2 weeks ago, He asked me if I was going to go to Chicago again next year,as that would be the party of all parties!
He enjoyed life, he was a funny guy who kept in touch and was genuinely interested in others daily lives. He was a cookie monster with a passion for Jammie Dodgers and Guinness.
Excited about all the music projects he was in, had a lust for life that was unquenchable.
I didn’t know him well enough to call him a friend but on the many occasions we did talk he had a knack of making you think you’d known eachother forever, laid back and loved to have a giggle, awesome sense of humour even though he was a brummie
Words cannot express how sorry I am to his family and those that knew him best, a true beacon and inspiration.
I will always look fondly at that last mail I got from him asking about Chicago, as that was what he loved, living life to the full.
Peace be with him, and thoughts for his family and friends.
