It is with a very heavy heart that I pass on that my step up father and billiards instructor Tom Simpson passed away yesterday of a heart attack. He had been experiencing some issues for a while but we all felt things were good. Quite a shock. His influence in the pool world was widespread and felt by many. He ( in collaboration with others) brought us the Aim Trainer and many many more instructional aids. He was a contributing writer to many billiards publications and had a large impact in pool. To soon (he was to turn 64 on oct 4) but I can say that he was an amazing instructor, and very loved by many. Cannot express right now what he ment to me and others so I shall leave off with- go shoot some balls for Tom!
There will be a more formal announcement coming forthwith, I just needed to pass this on
