I’m currently reading a book called Norwich Memories (Edited by Sarah Houlsden), in which I think Mr Godfrey Greener born 1935, made a printed contribution about life as a boy in Norwich during WW2. He gives a very vivid account of his youth, which was lovely to read. He made more than one entry in the book. The book was printed 12009. ISBN 978-0-9563255-0-1
I was sorry to see that he’d passed so recently.

  • Thank you Dad gave each of us a copy of the book. He was incredibly proud of his contribution. I believe the audio recordings that he and the other contributors made are available to listen to at Norwich Central Library. I plan to go and find them soon.

That final, private moment we shared, the truth that was spoken, the clarity from within.... I will never, ever forget that moment. I love you to the moon and back, and beyond.... Always, your L-B 💜
