His sons Alan, Jimmy and Stephen are said to be deeply upset.

And how the fuck do you smoke 100 a day? If I smoke 20 on a night out my throat feels like shit in the morning  Shrug

Friends said it was possible that the years he spent curing smokers in smoke-filled sessions at his clinics might have contributed to the illness, although it might also be linked to his previous heavy smoking.

Made a tidy profit from it though and to reach his 70's after a 100-a-day habit is an achievement in its own right!
