More sad news. I first met Lee ( member Mayo1212) at the funeral of his Dad Derrick May, he was a lovely kid and many of the lads present took to him which meant he had a good few bob in his pocket. More than that, even at his gentle age he enjoyed the company of the people who were described to him as Dads friends from the Army. I promised that I would send him some pictures of his dad which I did and he replied with a lovely thankyou letter along with a gift of one of his favourite "collectables"
Many years passed then finally we got back in touch through fb. He was hungry to hear anything about "Big D" and relished the stories from those who shared with him the experiences they had with his father and of course the photographs that people gave him access to. It is tragic that this young man has left us. The only consolation is that he is back with the Mum and Dad he missed so much. Godbless Lee.
so sorry to here aboutlee i knew him on the forum god bless you my son you can join your dad in the bn in the sky rest in peace mate and condolances to all your family wally and marion jones 15

I never met Lee but his enthusiasim about his dad's time in the RWF was unavoidable on the forum and FaceBook and showed his love and respect for his dad RIP Lee without question a member of the RWF family
Condolences from all members of the Denbigh and District Branch of The Royal Welch Fusiliers Comrades Association. Only met Lee once but he left a long lasting impression. RIP with Derek.
