I'm sure many of you will be shocked to hear about this as I was, unfortunately one of our dearest QL members passed away on 10th of April.dweller (Graham as some knew him) died of Cancer :(

I remember him as one of the more informative members here on QL as he was a long time Qatar resident, always posted sensible stuff.

For those that didnt know him found this on his profile:

British and currently living in Aberdeenshire having spent 6 years living in Turkey, married (2 kids, 6 grandchildren) and an expat since 1978 Kuwait (78 to 81), Qatar with QP(Offshore Ops) from 1982 to 1997.
Heavily involved in darts when running the QIDL, the Myson Premier league and helping run the Qatar Open at the Ramada, bosun of QSALYC and a member of Dukhan and Umm-saeed (now Messaieed) golf clubs.
Moved to Abu Dhabi as a HR Consultant in Feb 2000 until 2002. Qatar from 2002 to 2003. A further 3 months in Qatar with DAGOC in 2003 and yet again another spell in 2004.
Now undertaking short contracts in the Gulf or in the UK on a when required basis with organisations/individuals that know my skills.

May your soul rest in peace and may you now Dwell in a better place.

I've posted this on his wife's request to let other members know of his passing.

Yes. I still keep a vague eye on various Qatar websites, but the passing of a well respected friend and QL legend warranted logging in to post.

Its a really sad news... I guess it is the first time a demise of a QLer... is announced...

We all will miss him...

Tells us how much time is left for each of us...

I still vividly remember his "Mafi Bomb" joke regarding a Qatar Fighter pilot... that must have been the loudest I have laughed... he was quite active around the time I joined QL in 2007...

His comments had great punch...and some of it will stay will stay with us even after we are no longer on QL...

RIP Dweller... RIP

Very sad to hear. I do know him from some older posts, but unfortunately and perhaps due to his illness he had not been very active in the last year. His posts were informative and to the point and he always came across as a jovial and peaceful person. My condolences to all his loved ones.
