Melanie, well done and many thanks, as ever. That makes an excellent read, with some very interesting photographs…. The stories continue.

A recent post on Facebook a couple of days ago by his son reported that Verdun Edwards died recently. A comprehensive story of his life and activities accompanied it.  I feel that it is seemly to record his passing here.

I always enjoyed   this thread which Melanie generously started  all that time ago, enabling us to  discover his story  and those period photographs.

My condolences to the family.

Perhaps the Moderators might think it useful the add RIP to the thread title, thus completing the circle.

I do not understand.

 

Verdun Edwards (1916 - 1994) passed away nearly 30 years ago.
