Brian Stratford

John Triggs has passed me some sad news regarding the health of Brian Stratford (1RD and RHG/D) who served between Oct 1959 and Apr 1979; most will probably remember him from the Orderly Room. Brian has recently been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer with a prognosis that gives him about 6 months. I have spoken with him to offer any assistance that the Association may be able to provide and understandably he sounded a bit down; he did say that he would like to hear from anyone who he served with that may remember him. Unfortunately, he does not have e-mail however, he has no reservations about providing his address for anyone who wishes to drop him a line: 10 Connaught Place, Bobblestock, Hereford HR4 9PZ. Please feel free to drop him a line or a card as I’m sure he would appreciate hearing from anyone that knew him
