melhodgson Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hi, I'm trying to find an old friend called Jack Warhurst, he won the Star Walk in the sixties and went on to represent GB in the Commonwealth Games. He lived in a terraced house near the junction with Hollinsend Road, he worked for Sheffield Parks Department. He was a grooms man at my wedding in Feb 1966 and I would love to invite him to our Golden Wedding Party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Golden wedding by the way. Edited November 18, 2015 by stpetre edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
