That sounds like the very one, any idea as to her present day situation old son? I hope she is fit and well and enjoying life to the full, she was always energetic and fun at school, although that was some months ago now as you can imagine, if you are still in contact, please send her my kind regards and best wishes.

Well it's with great sadnss that I have to report the passing of Linda Chadwick, she was married, moved to Ripon, and had children, I am led to believe, this occured some years ago. Let's hope we can get better news of some of the other class mates PLEASE. As always best wishes and kind regards to everyone Old Saintonian !!!!!!!

Alan Dodd is my brother - in - law .

Mog · 18-01-2010, 09:47

Thanks for the information Greeny. Is Alan the same guy who was at St Christopher and left in 62. If he is, I hope he is well and could you ask if he remembers me. He should do if it is the same one. He came to see me in Blackburn Hospital in 1963 after I blew my hand off with a home made bomb. I think thats the last time I saw him.

Greeny · 18-01-2010, 10:43

Think it is the same Alan,he did go to St Christophers, he also came from Clayton and went to a bakers on leaving school.He is coming up 63 in June,lives on York St Accy and works at Hollands pies.
I have told him about these post, he is calling in to see me on his way home from work this afternoon. I shall see if anyone like yourself or cashman is on line when he gets here. His wife Janet and my hubby David are brother and sister.

Jimmy Whelan is my second cousin (I think) His mum and my mum were cousins. . Got two sisters, Linda and Pat. Big John Whelan, Rob and Barrie and the late Hilda are their cousins from their dad Bert's side.
