Sincere condolences to Tommy´s family. I knew him for over 20 years at the gym. Probably the nicest bloke I´ve ever met and a generous contributor to the church run I used to organise. He will be sadly missed but always fondly remembered.

iIhave known Tommy Reape and his family since the early 1960's.
We spent many years enjoying our teenage lives together whilst growing up together with our large group of friends.
football was our big passion, We formed a football team together and joined a local under 16's league.
things were different back then. our "local" league had teams in Bradford and Leeds.
We travelled there by public transport, as only Bill, Tommys Dad owned a car,
We managed ourselves there were no adults involved
We also spent many an hour playing subuteo when the dark nights and poor weather kept us indoors.
i could continue talking about our teenage lives, but I would like to pay my tribute to Tommy by saying what a great human being that he was.
we did not see much of each other as we followed our separate lives and careers.
we did bump into each other od times, but Tommy remained the same Lupset Lad that I will always remember
Rest in peace my friend
