He's a great chap. Gonna miss him. Thanks for doing this.This was posted on ASL FB page. I was waiting for it to pop up here as I never meant the man but felt that is should be shared.
Alan Lynott has passed away.
01.12.1971 - 08.09.2021
RIP ASL brother!I had an email from Kate Alan’s wife getting her permission to post this on the gaming forums that Alan used but was posted there before she told me , Alan passed away peacefully in the early hours of Yesterday morning after treatment for his brain cancer failed to work . A sad loss to his wife and children. I have been asked to sort out his gaming collection by Kate as in her words she was overwhelmed by it and the gaming world basically unknown to her. I last talked with Alan a few months back and he was just finished one treatment and felt positive, alas the reprieve was fleeting ……..
This is really sad. I did not know Alan, but his fate reminds me of Christian Koppmeyer, who has passed away under very similar circumstances. With Alan, another ASLer has left us too early apparently from the midst of life.I had an email from Kate Alan’s wife getting her permission to post this on the gaming forums that Alan used but was posted there before she told me , Alan passed away peacefully in the early hours of Yesterday morning after treatment for his brain cancer failed to work .

He passed on December 6th, 2020. Found that on Randy's initial post about Paul. Some links there that you might pursue. Still sad about him. What a loss.Hi all. Would anyone happen to have a photograph and birth/death date for Paul Weir? I'd like to include him within my in-memoriam section for my upcoming tournament in November.
Please PM if you can assist. I'd be really grateful.
Thanks in advance.
Agreed Tom, without Terry giving us both his newsletter to hold us over between AH ASL releases and being able to playtest for him and have our initial scenario offerings published, he helped make Dispatches from the Bunker possible as we sprang into action when both the Rout Report and On All Fronts went out of publishing.Guys,
Recently someone brought up Terry Treadaway, publisher of On All Fronts newsletter, wondering what happened to him.
I did some digging, and sadly Terry passed away back in 2010:

Terry's On All Fronts was a groundbreaking newsletter, and his efforts inspired many to follow, like Dispatches and many others.
R.I.P. Terry. At least now your ASL comrades can know of your passing.
Tom
