Sorry to hear that Dick is none too good. Not quite sure of issue….
I sailed with Dick many times, he was originally a Radio Officer with Mavroleon Bros in the early 70’s and transferred over to LOF. Obtaining further qualifications Dick became an E&EO (Electronics and Electrical Officer) Although he did not attend either Reunion, I last saw/met him in 2007 at a gathering in South Shields. Here are a few photo memories.
