Dear Lindsey,
My condolencies to you and all Edwin's family. We lived close to one another in Darlington Road in our youth, and both went on to KJ1GS. Later when he was a sea-going engineer with the Harrison Line he visited my wife and I in Trinidad, BWI. A great lad who will be sorely missed by many.

: Just thought I'd copy this from the
: Evening Gazette, Middlesbrough:

: peacefully at home, surrounded by
: his loving family, Eddie aged 73
: years. Dearly loved husband of

: Dear Lindsey, I was shaken by your
: news. As you know, I've been
: intending to contact Eddie and Nora,
: but largely because of my own
: decrepit condition (I'm about five
: years older than Eddie) haven't yet
: done so, and now of course in
: Eddie's case it's too late (who was
: it who said that "too
: late" is the saddest phrase in
: the language ?). I'll let Stan
: Howe know. Thanks again.
