    just found this another sad  day

    Letter posted on an Aussie forum,

    Dear Peter,

    I'm sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but my Dad slipped away this evening peacefully. He had been admitted to hospital last weekend with problems of rapid heart-rate and dizziness. He stayed in for best part of a week, and they were thinking of sending him home when he had a fall while still at the hospital. He broke his femur at the top, near the hip joint. It seems to have been the last straw for him, he lapsed into unconsciousness earlier today and just slipped away.

    To be honest, it will in a way come as a relief to us, as we have charted his ups and downs and wondered how long sheer force of will would keep him hanging on. He was a fascinating man, especially accomplished in view of his humble origins. The racing pigeon fancy has lost one of its greatest stores of practical wisdom.

    I will keep you informed of everything. Please let me have a phone number, so I can reach you more easily.

    William (Billy) Cowell

    RIP BILCO

    I remember reading articles from Bilco when I was a small boy.
    He must have been a good age when he passed away, as I'm in my forty'a now.

    Truly a sad loss to the sport in general I would say Boosey. My first recollection of his readings, was a story about a rich owner of horse etc who employed him at the time to condition his horses for showing & then expected him to tell him his secrets in how he did it. Short employment Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes lol! lol! lol! for what I remember back then. Not always correct in my view in what he said in regards to the pigeons, but it will be hard to find a man these days, to fill his boots in what he gave back to the sport. cheers
