At the Reunion, I learnt that George Nash and Johnny Purkis (JP) were both quite ill.

I believe that neither of them are on Facebook, so I thought it might be a good idea to place the information on this board, so that those who might wish to, can leave a short message for both of them.

It almost goes without saying, that I sincerely hope both George and JP, get well soon, and that they and thier families, both have my best wishes.

Syd,  great to hear from you. Hope all is well with you and yours.

I have no contact details for JP or George. I learnt of their illness through Brian Farndell at the Reunion. I also have no contact details for Brian.

Probably get some contact details for Brian via the Web Branch of the Association. (Maybe even JP) Put a message up FAO Ken Ambrose or Kev Stevens.

Take care,

Hi Sandy.

Spoke to Brian last night, he gave me a sitrep on both. My son Lee lives in Dover and often speaks to both George and his son. Will visit George next time in Dover which will be very soon. JP lives down the A49 from me in Hereford, although I do not have any other details will keep searching. I am not on facebook so if you do turn up JP details please send to sydhopgood@btinternet.co.uk

Take care, speak to you soon. Syd

Spoke to George last week and informed him of all your comments and good wishes. He asked me to thank you all and to pass on his best regards. He is weathering the storm as far as his health is concerned.

Thanks Brian. Let's hope George improves.

I have been in touch with JP's daughter. She has passed on to JP all our best wishes and will keep me updated on how he is. (He has Parkinson's Disease and some periods of time are worse than others.) She said John is aiming to get to next years Reunion. Let's hope so.

Just been reading about George Nash, last time I remember George was at my 21st, he was trying to con on to my sister, never did find out what happened about that. Anyway, whoever sees or speaks to him again, pass on my regards and best wishes for his health, and of course to Johnny Purkis. Regards, Jim McCormick.
