Lou,gone but not forgotten.
Being a nice day I took a trip down to the Pier Head and whilst there I stopped at the Repatriation Memorial I gave the name of the Monwai a bit of a rub and thought of Lou that was the ship that brought him back down the Mersey and home from his time as a FEPOW it seems like yesterday that he was standing there pointing at the Monowai I think it was Brian that took the photograph.Always in our thoughts RIP Lou.
Regards.

Re: Lou,gone but not forgotten.
Here is the photo Jim, also the card Tina sent me from New Zealand. He is also pointing at the Duchess of Bedford, [ later Empress of France] that he was on before he joined the Gloucester Castle.
I have a lot of photos of him both in Liverpool and in Dunedin from when I met him there,
Cheers
Brian
