I've just remembered, I think Vera's surname was Holden. Correct me if I'm wrong Harry!

I'm still around only now down to one yum. Yes Bob, you are correct, her name was Holden, strange she worked with Frank Holden (no realation) Both sad ends.

I was married to Vera Holden in 1964. Sadly she passed away in 1997, very much missed. Vera was a friend of Colin Marsh and his wife. Thanks for the lovely photo.

Does anyone remember Bob (Robert) Steel who was a manager in the Pioneer works around that time?
