Harry Catterick - Death

Death

Catterick died of a heart attack shortly after watching Everton draw 2–2 with Ipswich Town in an FA Cup Quarter Final at Goodison Park on 9 March 1985. He was 65 years old. His death came almost exactly five years after former Everton striker Dixie Dean had died while watching a game at the ground, also of a heart attack. Everton won the replay 1–0 and the players wore a black armband in honour of Catterick.

Famous quotes containing the word death:

    Once one’s up against it, the precise manner of one’s death has obviously small importance.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    My glass shall not persuade me I am old
    So long as youth and thou are of one date,
    But when in thee time’s furrows I behold,
    Then look I death my days should expiate.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Abba, dark death is the breaking of a glass.
    The dazzled flakes and splinters disappear.
    The seal is as relaxed as dirt, perdu.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
