    Public - Suzanne MacLeod - Other relative - 24 April 2020
    Report 
  • To my dear uncle who I never knew but heard so much about from his sister Jean Stuart MacLeod Harvey my Mum, who loved him dearly.
    Due to illness amongst the crew, Uncle Norman volunteered to join the mission from which he never returned - a selfless act of helping his fellow crew members out.
    May you Rest In Peace.
    Public - Suzanne MacLeod Harvey - Other relative - 15 June 2018
