d. 7 July, 2005, Liverpool Street/ Aldgate Circle line train, London.

Richard Gray was rarely happier than when playing hockey for the club he founded, watched by his family. The Ipswich & East Suffolk Hockey Club was a passion for the father-of-two ever since he helped set it up in 1986. And as his children, Adam, 11, and Ruby, grew up they often watched him play. On 7 July, the tax accountant, 41, caught his usual train from his hometown Ipswich to London's Liverpool Street. From there he took the Circle Line Tube to his office in Pall Mall but was never seen again. A statement from his family said: "He was a wonderful, loving father and an extremely loving, caring and sensitive husband to wife Louise."
