Dear Boxrec
I have joined you specifically to ask a question as to where you got the information that a pro boxer who I was in The Royal Navy with has died ... Your site says that Brian Schumacher died on the 24 of April 2013.... He was a RN boxer before tuning pro and the RN captain as well as the Los Angeles Olympic GB Captain ... He is part of the RN& RM Ex boxing Champions association ... The ( RNRMBA)...... There are well over 100 members all old boxing champions including myself ... I boxed on the same card as Brian ( known as Schuey ) to his mates .. At Cliffs Pavilion , Southend on sea on 24/2/1988 ... So I know it is the same Brian Schumacher who we all know and love .... As far as the association knows , we have been in contact with Brian after the date stated of his death.... Though not recently ... So we can't understand why he has been shown as Dead on your site .... Died 24/4/2013 ..... Like I said there are over 100 members so surely 1 of us would have heard should he have died .... We know he was sent to prison around 13 years ago for Manslaughter but have not heard he has died .... Could you reply and let me know how you came about this information as we are quite upset to think one of " ours has died " and we didn't know ... Or if it is in correct information on your site I'm sure you will
Agree that it is totally unacceptable to have on the sure that someone is dead if they are not ... I would appreciate an e-mail back ASAP so I can inform my Association ( RNRMBA. ) of my findings ..
Much appreciated
Davey Robb
