One added point I have noticed within the notification of Harry's death, the mention of his boxing prowess.

Prior to my mum sadly passing away she did mention that someone in her family was a boxer.

Kind Regards

Willsy,

Yes I could not believe it this morning opening up my messages an to see Harry’s photo.

A bit of a long story, my late mums dad Rodmond died when she was 8 and I have managed to find one photo of him.

My Great Gran, Harry’s mum, Susan lost one son in 1942, but but going by the date of the newspaper cutting she did not know until possibly 1943.  But she lost my grandad in 1943 and another son Edmond …what a terrible year 1943 must have been for my Gt Gran.

That’s why the photo of Harry means a lot to me.
