Trevor Barker Tribute

Post: # 684399Post Ralphy »

To Whom It May Concern

Im looking to Do A Tribute to the late great trevor barker,

as some fans now days do not know who he is ( mainly the young ones)
going to be posting it on Saintsational.com (so the young ones can read it)

now i was going to go visit his grave because i think all sainters should do this once in there lives,

not only because he was a legend, because he has made stkilda what it is today.

without him there might not be a club. simple as that.

i was looking at taking a photo of trevors grave as respect to him and posting it on the forum.
Now Do i need to get permission off His family. (jack etc) to be able to do this. if so I would be most happy to talk to him about his son, get Jacks insite into everything
if at all possible, can i hand my contact details over to jack or someone in his family.

Brad



if i posted this on saintsational , Would you like me to or not before i send this to the club.

great sentements there Ralphy
Trevor Barker is St Kilda i personally did not witness him playing but the footage i have seen and the memories many of the older saints fans have of the great man really open your eyes to how importan he is to this club of ours ... im not to sure about the pics of the Grave as i kinda get a feel that it is a bit morbid ? maybe more celebrate his life then dwell on his death ? even thou throu his death his legacy has helped many through the Trevor Barker foundation
