barnh Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Hi, my wife Lou was wondering if anyone remembered her dad, he was John Stewart, and Irish, and would have been working at Dormer some time between 65 - 69. He had a wife Elizabeth, and 6 kids called Helen, Ian, Hazel, Louise, Carol and Joe. He died in 69 with leukaemia aged 40 and we know the staff did a whip round for his family, which was really appreciated and needed at the time if anyone remembers him even vaguely please reply because Lou just wants to say thank you, and hear any stories about her dad. Thanks for your time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
