Hopefully this post won't be considered as self-indulgent, but rather my experiences of staffie, to highlight the generosity of the man.
There are other HOLers with far more experience of staffie as a friend than me. Their experiences count for a lot more than mine,; But for the record,

I joined the HOL about 10 years ago, and being a technophobe, had no idea about how to download files.

It transpired I lived 10 minutes walk away from staffie. He would regularly drop off CD's he had burned, whilst I learnt how to download files.

Sloveniadave first started the 'thankyou' presents to staffie around 2010.
He had a copy of the Steve Coppell book which he brought to the Whitehorse for as many HOLers as possible to sign their gratitude within the covers.
staffie was over-whelmed with the book.
staffie was very reluctant to accept any gifts of gratitude, but did appreciate people saying 'thank you', either by posting , or PM.

Sloveniadave got the ball rolling for me. Over the next couple of years we (thanks to donations by other HOLers) got him a home shirt with 'staffie' on the back, a signed copy of a vinyl "Crime of the Century" by band-member Roger Hodgson (staffie's all-time favourite album).
And finally we got him a ticket for the Play-Off final against Watford.

All of the above we virtually had to force on the man, as he wanted no gifts of appreciation. It was more than enough for HOLers just to post 'thanks'

And like all of us, he could be a miserable bvgger from time to time. And yet he was loved unconditionally by a huge amount of people who didn't even know him.
For fans based abroad this was especially true.

Sorry for rambling.

RIP staffie

In fact just spoke to Jonny (Programme Editor) and they would be happy to put something in the match day Message Board (which this week appeared on P34 of the programme).

However they will need this by tomorrow lunchtime (Wednesday).

Any volunteers to write a nice piece / obituary?

Again if anyone has a picture I'm sure fellow fans and HOLers would be keen to finally see staffie, an enigmatic man who did so much for our community.
