Never forgotten...22 years on :(

I can't believe it has been 22 years since the terrible Hillsborough tragedy in the UK.

My Uncle was one of the 96 Liverpool fans crushed to death that day.

Yes it was a terrible waste of lives. My Uncle was 67 yrs old. His son from here in Australia got him the ticket to go for his Birthday & he has blamed himself ever since. My younger Cousin was with him, he had serious injuries but survived. At the funeral, the Liverpool club sent representatives & a wreath in the shape of a football.
