Very sad news, Jerzy Greblicki from Mackay passed away on Sunday from a heart attack while kiting, only in his 50s and pretty fit, Jerzy had been a keen sailboarder and regular at Illawong beach the last couple of years. He recently started kiting as well.
He was a very pleasant guy who will be sadly missed.
Jerzy will most certainly be missed. I enjoyed his company. Any word with respect to the funeral? Liam and I would like to pay our respects. I'm out of town and will need to organise travel.

That's really sad, he was a nice guy
Must have been horrible for whoever pulled him out of the water.
yes, not good squiddy. Tim, details will be in the d. mercury Saturday for a Tuesday funeral. I've heard there may be a waterside farewell at kite beach Saturday but conditions don't look good atm.
Sad going so young.I hope it was quick. I hope this doesn't sound callous and cliche as it's not meant to be and I know it's no consolation to his family but if I have to go I hope I go quickly from a massive heart atack while sailboarding or doing something I enjoy.
Sad, but at least died what he liked doing. What I want happen to meself, if it must happen.
I wonder what kills people that 'young', that have kept active and fit...
