Rest in peace, John Flood

I've heard from Marian Wood that "John Flood died very suddenly at his home on 11th April. Private funeral in Uley 30th April."

If receive any more details, I can put them here.

John Flood was one of my teachers at the school. He had a wide range of interests that he was keen to share with the boys, and he used to take some of us sailing at Frampton on Sundays, which remains a happy memory. He must have been in his late 30s then; in his early 90s by now.

Rest in peace, Heneage Brooke

Marian Wood has got in touch to tell me of the unfortunate early death of Heneage Brooke (aged 64) on the 6th of March, 2021. I also heard about it earlier from Roger Knott-Fayle, without the details.

"Private funeral 12th April at 15:30 after drive through Uley. Donations to RAF Benevolent Fund. Undertakers Clutterbuck of Cam."

Heneage was at Stouts Hill from 1965 to 1970; he was two or three years younger than me, and I don't remember him from the 1960s, but I met him briefly at the 2010 reunion, and he appears in a couple of my photos of the event.
