ButcherBill Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Does anyone know how Ollie is? Been 3 months since his last video on YT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galvatron Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 From his last video, he expected a tough few months ahead as he said he'd be on an aggressive round of chemo. novioman and Mr Dellski 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Enid_Puceflange Posted March 10 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 10 (edited) A happy update I just spotted this on one of the discord groups Ollie was apparently out to a game last weekend 👍 Edited March 10 by Enid_Puceflange Galvatron, Tackle, Cocha and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbo666 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 I'm new to the forum as I've only recently signed up to buy stuff from the classifieds (at Ollie's recommendation). I know how much of an impact Ollie had on the community so thought you all deserve an update, but I'm afraid that I've only got crap news. Ollie went into hospital at the end of last week for a procedure. Myself and few other friends from our school days went to visit from Norfolk anyway. Ollie's blood pressure was very low Saturday and he had very limited bursts of consciousness. They managed to stabilise him and they were hoping to get him back home for Sunday. Unfortunately he continued to decline and when we rocked up at 11:40ish we where invited into his room by his family. Over the next hour or so we swapped stories about our shenanigans with Ollie over the years, and at some point Ollie seamlessly transitioned from this plane of existence with a smile on his face surrounded by people that loved him. Ollie was very brave at the end. Gunny, RostokMcSpoons, Lozart and 27 others 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galvatron Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 I understand too why Mike is unable to announce the very sad news right now and Dan has relieved my caution. Damn, Ollie was open about the grim diagnosis and didn't expectations but it doesn't make hearing this easier. Having a decent chin wag with him at the Midlands Airsoft Fair and discovering we have somewhat similar professional backgrounds while nerding out about barrel and bucking combinations formed a bond quite quickly. I can only imagine how devastating this is for his closest friends and family. Ollie's not only raised awareness of bowel cancer but done the most extraordinary job helping unite airsoft communities and create new airsoft fans. Fighting it as bravely as he did is something I hope I can do if I had to battle a terminal illness. Rest easy, Ollie.

Cooperman26 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Thoughts go out to those who knew Ollie personally at this heart wrenching time. His videos will remain as a long lasting reminder of someone who had a passion for life and all things airsoft. 🤟🏻 danbo666 and SSPKali 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
