   This is a message that Bryony, Grim’s daughter posted on our chatbox:

   Hi, Mike’s daughter here. Thank you so much for your lovely tribute page and your kind words. It’s so lovely to know he had such good friends on here. He loved to make people happy with his music. Will of course let you lot know about funeral arrangements as we would be honoured to meet some of you.

   Grim was one of the guys to introduce me to Muck FM and to encourage me to get back into DJing, I’ll miss him and his tunes and my thoughts are with his family and friends.

   He was a good lad

   Rest in peace and rave on.

   Grim will never be forgotten here at Muck FM. From an original listener to a regular DJ, he was an integral person here and will be sadly missed. Grim used to refer to himself as an “old skool hippy”; Ive not met many old skool hippies in my time, but if they’re characteristically easy-going, gentle, emphatic and friendly, then I can say for definate that I have known and partied with one that matches that description perfectly.

   RIP mate, shine on.

   a sad day indeed….Grim was one of the first people I met in the club here and made me feel so welcome….such a wicked sense of humour….and so kind :) He will never be forgotten, he touched so many of us (and you know how I mean that!) an absolute star, who is now shining down on all of us.
   Bryony, our thoughts are with you and your family.

   and a wee tune for Grim too:

    It’s really lovely reading all your comments and the sweet things you have to say about my dad. You lot really meant a lot to him. I keep nearly wanting to ring him and tell him all about him and let him know how loved he is. Thanks again, guys.

    I am really moved by all the tributes to Mike or Grim as you knew him. It is a great comfort for me and Bry to know that he was loved and his talent for DJ’ing enjoyed. We had our differences but he was my best friend for 24 years. You’ve gone to the good place Grim and may you rest in peace and mix it up with the angels. Love from Liz ( Mrs Grim )

    Thanks, Javvy, that’s really nice to hear. I’m going to the interview to get on a nursing degree course later on today so I’m determind to focus my mind on it and make him proud.

    Mike always showed complete distaste towards organised religion, so I think he will be very pleased that Good Friday is now ‘Grim Friday’ on here.

    Thankyou for all the giggles and chats about nonsense back in the early Muck FM days. I’ll never forget our picnic on the dancefloor and being one half of Quim.
    My heart goes out to Bryony and the rest of your family.
    With love, Queen x

    I only ever met Mike once whilst having a bloody good time. And thats how i’ll remember him. A mellow fellow with no pretence. He was one Pukka Sound Sweet bloke.
    See you on the other side Grim (where ever that might be !)

    You are definitely one of the most gently spoken people I’ve met, when I had the pleasure of a soiree with you at Muck FM HQ on my flying visit from Indonesia.

    As the Muck FM nerd, doing all the technical stuff in my exotic hut in Indonesia, it was great to see you pay so much attention to the site. It is without a doubt that your comments helped make it look as it does and brought the sense of community that we can all see today.

    Your mixes will always remain a huge part of Muck FM. However, equally important to me is the care that you put into the site. This will remain in the code that keeps Muck FM running into the future.

    A final thanks for this beauty of a set – 33 minutes in fills my day with sparkle.

    Hi guys, Bryony and I are after a favour. We wondered if it would be possible to get a CD with about four minutes of samples of Grim’s music to play at his send-off, we want something special as a tribute to him. I know it’s a lot to ask but it would mean so much to me, Bry, Kevin and Jane, we want to make his ceremony something personal. Cheers in advance if you can help. We really would love it if as many of you as possible could come along, no dates yet but we’ll keep you posted. Love from Liz and Bryony xx

    Hi Liz. That won’t be a problem at all. I will speak the crew and we will find four minutes that epitomise Grim. I’ll be in touch via e mail :)

    Thank-you so much Dr Muck, you are a stand-up geezer as Grim always told me! I assume you have my e-mail from these posts. Just an idea, if anyone wants to make a small donation in Grim’s name we think the charity MIND would be appropriate, they gave Grim a lot of support. For those attending his life celebration we ask that they bring one poppy – fake if necessary – for peace as Grim was the most peaceful man ever born, as you all knew. Cheers again from Liz and Bry x
