Recently the sad news reached us that former BU correspondent Des McDonagh from Leicester passed away. Des was a great guy and a great help in promoting Beatles Unlimited in the United Kingdom and behind the BU stall at the Liverpool Beatles convention in the late 1970ies and early 1980ies. He will be missed greatly. On behalf of BU staff from those early days and on behalf of the 2012 BU team we wish his wife and family and friends strenght in these difficult times.
