Ron Ledwidge

Sad news for members of 28 Fixed Wing course at ETPS. I heard from Mary that Ron Ledwidge died in hospital this morning after a short illness. His many tp friends will miss him very much. I will post funeral details here when they are known.

Thanks John. Not my year but I knew Ron well and this is indeed sad news. He and Mary had fought adversity valiantly in recent times. My heart goes out to her.

Ron’s funeral will be held at the A.Munn Chapel, Kettering Crematorium, on Wednesday 30 August at 13.30 and afterwards mourners are invited to the Bridge Hotel Thrapston.

Mary would clearly like an idea of numbers so if you think you will be there please let me know at [email protected]
