I feared for the worst when I read that he was in a fairly bad way. I'm sure we'll all remember him for the wonderful performances, books, tricks and ideas, but also for the way he was so helpful to everyone.
I never had the pleasure of meeting him, but like many of you, I loved seeing him on TV, and owned not only a couple of books by him (both of which are a cut above the usual kids magic books) but also a box of tricks he put his name to.
RIP, Ali.
