Below is the text of the Email originally circulated by REDWatch on Tuesday morning which provides some background for those that might not have seen it:
Dear
Friends and Colleagues
It
is with great sadness that I write to let you know that Trevor Davies passed
away this morning Tuesday 14 June 2011.
Trevor
was due to undergo an angiogram today but was taken to hospital yesterday and
had a massive heart attack there. Doctors worked on him for many hours but were
unable to revive him. It only became apparent when they operated on him that he
had a congenital hole in the heart and an infection.
Trevor
had only recently celebrated his 55th birthday.
Trevor
was a member and Elder of South Sydney Uniting Church, the founding editor of
the South Sydney Herald and long-time Secretary of the Darlington ALP Branch.
Trevor was one of the foundation members of REDWatch and was known to very many
people within the local community. Please pass word on to those you know who
knew Trevor.
Sad Regards,
Geoff
Geoffrey Turnbull Spokesperson REDWatch
