Enid Thompson wrote a comment

“Enid Thompson (Nevie) lovingly remembers her younger brother Christie having dinner with her family daily while training as a teacher in Shaw Castle. After Christie moved to England, Enid joined him and their siblings. Enid fondly recalled their happy motorbike trips around Cheltenham and beyond. They later reunited in Canada, travelling together as in this photo taken in Prince Edward Island. Chris remained close to Enid and will be deeply missed by our family.”
