This is a sad loss obviously for his family and for the Citroen community too.
I did not know him at all but we are diminished by his departure. We will miss his knowledge and even more his helpfulness. Who will supply all those part numbers and those fixes and those how to-s now ?

RIP Citronut.
The Joy of BX with just one Citroën BX to my name now. Will I sing Bye Bye to my GTI or will it be Till death us do part.

I'm not sure what the funeral details are, i'd certainly attend if some of you guy's were going, it would be great to have a good turnout for a fellow citroholic :) Perhaps Tim, some sort of Trophy for future car events could be sorted out in his memory, that way his legacy will live on, i'll be more than happy to contribute towards one.

Good suggestion Matt, a Malcolm Goldberg Trophy to be presented this year at the Chevrons rally as the CXM was one he regularly attended..

Yes I think that's a excellent idea and count me in. He was always exceptionally generous with his time and advice and though I never needed it I could see through the forum just how he was…

We've got a date for the funeral. Below copied from the FCF. Judging from the replies on the forums and Facebook, looks like there will be a people travelling from all over the country. Hope to see some of you there.

I'm very sorry to hear of this. As many have already said, I found Malcolm to be very giving and helpful with advice on this forum, often very quickly and a couple of his well considered comments have helped me out no end in fixing my cars.

A spirit to be remembered.

Just seen this post, very sad news indeed. I met Malcolm once at a national, lovely guy. Malcolm helped me out several times on here. My condolences to his family.
