Richard Farrant Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) I have some sad news about one of our forum members who has just passed away. John Wheatley slipped peacefully away last night while in Maidstone hospital. I know he had informed us on the forum of his condition. Best known as owner of Bertha, his Morris Commercial C8GS, he mainly attended shows around Kent, but did venture to Normandy with it in 2009 and used to do the Bethune trips as well. RIP John Edited February 15, 2013 by Richard Farrant banjoman was his email address - sorry for confusion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
