Another ex soldier taking his own life after a severe bout of PTSD
In tilshead I met a good guy Unfortunately he has now gone Taken to the angels in the sky His name was Steve baron A North Eastern lad thats for sure A kind heart all so pure Talented linguist speaking pashtu Your family and friends now miss you A gunner was capbadge of choice We will miss that geordie voice Saddened to hear about your demise Look after us left from the skies At last my friend you can rest You've earnt your medals on your chest Sleep tight big man demons are gone Your legacy will live on Condolences to friends and family You've left a massive void You'll always be a drop short Steve Banter you can't avoid R.i.p brother in that sky I hope you hear the lullaby No more noise for you young man Angel music and a beer can R.i.p Steve baron
