It's my sad duty to inform you that Tommy passed away on Tuesday, July the 24th after a fight with cancer that prevented his getting up for the past six-odd weeks. He would have been 91 in September.
Tommy will be remembered most recently for having flown restored Seafire SX336 on her maiden flight ('Seafire flies again'), but for a detailed account of his wartime career please refer here:
PORTSMOUTH MEMORIES
Tommy's funeral will take place at Portchester Crematorium on August the 7th at 12 noon.
My deepest sympathy goes to his wife Joan, his family, and many friends.
R.I.P. Tommy
