Surprised that Simon has missed this one tbh.

The first Polish grandmaster of modern times, who would have turned 80 on Monday.

Hi Matt. I picked up the death last Sunday and forgot to post it.
I've been working very long hours and playing league matches away at Preston and Leyland Chess Clubs.
I'm afraid, I've found a further fifteen deaths of titled players which I'll post gradually.
I've not even had time to post events in the Congress Diary Category.
