I have had another sad email from yet more people who were very fond of Nick and are equally keen to join me in finding out as much as possible about the events over in Thailand. I wish I could even tell them whether the funeral has taken place. I quote their email to me:
Hi Moira ,
I came across your blog while researching the death of Nick Knight.I am representing my family who all knew Nick both as a GP and as a friend for many years.When Nick came to Newcastle my grandmother Doreen Cussins was asked by a friend of her's , Jean Monro - who I assume was a family friend,to 'look after' Nick.My grandmother dutifully did so and Nick was a regular visitor to her house.He would come round on a monthly basis for dinner - and a drink of course!
We are all deeply shocked at the recent events in Thailand and are keen to find out what happened and the status of the ongoing police investigation.As we do'nt know any of Nick's friends we would all greatly appreciate it if you would keep us 'in the loop'.I have read the relevant posts on the Hua Hin forum but the picture is somewhat unclear.Is it true that someone has gone to Thailand to find out what happened?Did Nick refuse surgery?

Yours
Sacha xxxxxxx
One thing - there are many of us here in the UK determined not to let this brutal death be swept under the carpet and allowed to fade from people's memory. Nobody deserves to be murdered, but if anyone did NOT deserve to die like this, then it was Nick who was kind and compassionate and did not belong in the same sentence as violence.

I have heard from another forum that someone called Nigel has arrived in Thailand to hire a lawyer and kick start the police into some real action. Does anyone know if this is true?

I know this is some time since Nick was murdered but I have only found out about his death and felt I needed to add a little note on this forum.
Nick was my GP for well over 20 years and also treat me at hospital.
He was in my opinion an excellent doctor who took time to explain things to people he was caring and proffessional he was a true gentleman.
There are few people I can say that I respected but he was one of them before he left for Thailand I wished him well and hoped he would be happy in retirement. I feel very saddened that a man who spent all his life helping and caring for people should die in such a brutal way.
He did not deserve this. I hope they bring to justice whoever did this.
I am not religious myself but knew he was so I hope he rests in peace.
Nick a true gentleman.
