Eddie - It is with great sadness that I Inform you that my Father in Law John Geoffrey Lee Passed away peacefully on 22/06/02, after being ill for some six months.
As some of you may know Geoff was passionate in his duties regarding the welfare of his former fellow F.E.P.O.W s and for over 20 years until the early 1990's he always appeared to be either Welfare Officer, Treasurer or Secretary of the Nottingham F.E.P.O.W association.
He was also passionate in his desires to have the Railway built In Sumatra by POWs recorded in History (see my mails in Sumatra Railway)

He is a sad loss!
