Default Gary Talbot passes away

Perhaps on the wrong thread but who cares. Many Wrexham fans of a certain age will recall Gary when he played for our friends over the border. He was a prolific goal scorer for Chester and a first class professional photographer. I believe he had a few good offers to move but loved his photographic career as well as slamming them in for Chester. Above all he was a thoroughly nice man.

He played in a fantastic forward line which included ex Wrexham Micky Metcalf, Elfed Morris as well as Ryden and Humes. How we Wrexham fans envied the famous 5 as they scored 138 goals in one season. Those were the days when some Wrexham fans occasionally travelled to see Chester and vice versa.
Gary was 82.

My God !
I spoke to him at Padeswood Golf Club only a couple of Summers ago.
I commented that I used to curse him in the 60’s and he laughed.
He looked fit as a flea then.

Gary was an absolute gent. Had the privilege of working with him when I commissioned some photos. Very sad.

I remember him coming in to Blackburn Post Office when I worked there in the Sixties on relief from a Liverpool.

Very sad news. Gary was an excellent player and always seemed to score against us. A tough old fashioned forward. RIP

Sad news.. Takes me back to the days when Chester were proper rivals.
Going to Sealand Road.. And getting from there without getting beat wasn't easy.

Lung cancer Mate. Gary found out he had it in the summer, took him very quickly. I must say it is nice that people at Wrexham are thinking of him at this sad time
