Geoffrey Luke RIP

[East Stand Martin]

A contact of mine involved with the Plymouth Argyle Supporters Association London Branch has asked me to pass on the following sad news:

GEOFFREY LUKE WEST HAM ASSISTANT SECRETARY IN THE 70’S

Geoffrey Luke who founded the London Branch back in June 1978 has sadly passed away. Geoffrey was 65 and for years attended Home Park as well as travelling to many an away game.

Geoffrey gave a lot of time to football and indeed it was football that made him move to London, Geoffrey was assistant secretary at West Ham United before that he was the secretary of Truro City FC, however these two jobs did not stop his support for Plymouth Argyle.

Geoffrey also has international honours, he represented England at Table Soccer (Subbuteo).

Final arrangements for his funeral are yet to be sorted out but all are welcome to attend and details will be circulated in due course. If you have some special memory of Geoffrey please email me at lee.c.jameson@hotmail.co.uk

For those of you who cannot make it to London funeral, a memorial service will be held later at his Cornish home town of St Agnus. Again if you want further details please feel free to contact me. I shall be meeting with his next of kin tomorrow to make the necessary arrangements.

Geoffrey passed away whilst coming back on a train after a couple of beers, anyone that knew Geoffrey the three things he loved were Trains, Plymouth Argyle and Real Ale.

PASALB will also remember Geoffrey and once again details are to follow.

Geoffrey will be missed by all that knew him, he is a great loss to PASALB and I now need somebody else to keep me on my toes.

Bye Geoffrey!
