My father placed a

passed away 24th Oct 2003. He was a gentleman, always willing to
help anyone. A volunteer for SAFFA - the soldiers, sailors, airmen
and family's association forces help. If any one wishes to contact
me that knew dad, please do. I lost my best friend but his
memories will always stay. |
