Norman Patton also tells us: \u201dOn recollection there are several students missing from this group;  Michael Dadd and Raymond Harrison (from Loftus \u2013 to join the Royal Navy), Derek Sharpe from Upleatham,  Stuart Fletcher from Ayton, Len Hodgson from Brotton (they had remained in Form IV) and Bill May (from North Skelton \u2013 to join ICI)\u201d. David Rickaby added: “Just come across this photograph. I remember you all but short term one going! I would be delighted to make contact with my class mates after 60 odd years, especially as we , maybe, come out of this coronavirus thing. Best regards to all who see this.” Ken Fawcett as well as confirming Norman Patton’s comments added: “Hi David, good to see your comments -regards to you too. Hard to believe that the photograph was taken over 60 years ago. There are quite a few faces I\u2019ve not seen since schooldays and indeed some, sadly, who are no longer with us. I\u2019ve had contact with some of the \u201cclass of \u201959\u201d in recent years including Jeff Hurst and Bill May, both of whom I see occasionally in the summer at Saltburn cricket club and I still exchange Christmas cards with Brian Winspear (we are cousins) although our most recent meeting was at a family funeral some 10 years ago. In following Yorkshire CCC I have crossed paths with Keith Booth at both The Oval and Headingley. He\u2019s not on the photograph but you may recall that whilst he started GGS at the same time as us ,he moved a form ahead after the first year. In retirement he was Scorer for Surrey CCC until 2 or 3 years ago.<\/strong>
Best wishes, take care and stay safe in these crazy times.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
