Our Dick.

DICK BRADSHAW.

I received some very sad news a little while ago.

Our dear friend and Felixstowe Scribbler, Richard Dick Bradshaw has passed away, I believe yesterday.

Dick leaves a wonderful legacy behind, a children's series of books, "Feathered Tales," the ghostly happenings down at Landguard, "Things that go bump in the Fort," has many poems published including some with the Imperial War Museum, and, of course, was one of the scriptwriters of the famous "Lost Sock." Not only did he help write it but he acted in it too!

A former teacher, Dick had a wonderful sense of humour and scores upon scores of tales to tell.  He leaves such a very big void that we will never be able to fill.

Rest in Peace my dear friend,

Dave.
