Kyle Simpson, a 26-year-old volunteer crew member at Rhyl RNLI lifeboat station, has died suddenly after joining the station only a few months earlier. The station praised his enthusiasm, training progress, maintenance work and involvement with fellow crew members, describing him as a cheeky character with an infectious laugh. Flags at the station and lifeboat memorials were lowered to half-mast, while the RNLI offered condolences to Simpson's family, friends and colleagues.
