Hashbituary
It is with sadness that we report that
Alun "Leeky Dick" Philips has passed away.
Alun 'Leeky Dick' Philips passed away on his adopted island of Bali on 20 Jul 2015 after a fight against the cancer that finally beat him. Leeky Dick was from the Jakarta HHH and a dear friend to many people in PH3.
He will be cremated in Bali and his ashes returned to Wales to be interred along with those of his parents and sister.
R.I.P.
21 July, 2015
Leeky Dick has gone to make hymns for the the RA in the sky.
Leeky had many friends in Phuket and will be long remembered for the help he gave Phuket Hash in the preperations for Interhash 1992. Leeky ran for many years with Batavia H3 in Jakarta where he would compose and manage magnificent Hash Operas and songs. His brilliant 'Phantom of the Hash Opera' was the highlight of the stage at Interhash '92. In later years Leeky retired to Bali where he frequently ran with some of the Bali hashes.
We have a video showing Leeky with Sheeps Kin who actually wrote the song they sing. It was Leeky's last visit to Phuket in 2011. (check back, coming soon)
