Sandie 53 Posted June 28, 2015 Sharron ‘SHAZZYBIRD’ Hubbard It is with a very heavy heart that we inform all on the BSF that the ‘Bird’ has passed away.Shazzy was taken into a hospice earlier this week and sadly passed away today - Sunday 28th June at 1pm.The older forum members will remember Shazzy best for her forthright, often controversial but most definitely passionate posts. She loved her sport and has been a speedway ‘fan’ all her life. ~She called herself MARMITE – you either loved her or hated her. But no one could ever doubt the passion for which she followed the sport and supported those close to her heart. I first met Shazzy at Cardiff when she stood up from her pub seat, still holding her large glass of something alcoholic and screamed “MUMMYFAIRY” Well, some 8 plus years on, Cardiff is still our thing. Hotels pre-booked early and normally cheaply due to inside information and then the bidding would begin. Our rooms would be full of handpicked family and friends and we have had so many laughs with so many of you over those years we could write a book!! This year will feel so very different. There will be tears and laughter and plenty of comforting hugs. She will be with us in spirit even if she cannot be there in person. I will miss my buddy so very much and I know many of you are the same. Speedway is an amazing sport with a supportive family. Spare a thought for this passionate Brit as the National Anthem is played on Saturday and then have a giggle as you realize she would have been wearing her Greg Hancock shirt with pride. See –that was our Shazzy and we will all miss her so very much. I am sure the forum joins me in offering our condolences to her husband Warren, her three children – Becka, Thomas and McCauley, her parents and her family.And of course all of their extended family and her so very many friends We will miss you so much my friend.RIP SHAZZYBIRD 20 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Halifaxtiger 5,318 Posted June 28, 2015 I am saddened to hear this news...........and a little surprised to discover that there were those who disliked her. She was part of this forum when I first joined and although I never met her I found her to be passionate, determined, thoroughly likeable (as far as I could make out) and ever so slightly bonkers - in my book, an absolutely winning combination. It is tragic that she lost her life so early. RIP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
