Hi Bryan and Graham,
I'm Mazzys mum who posted earlier. Thankyou Graham for remembering our Uncle Pat, he truly was a unique character
He raised me with my mum from when I was 6wks old, early 1958 in Glasgow. They both fostered me and I couldn't have wished for better parents.
He would work at Aston in Birmingham from Mon - Fri and get the train home on a Friday after work. I was blessed for him to give me away at my wedding and for him to see his 2 grand daughters before he passed away. He was heartbroken when he had to retire but got himself a little part time role at Glasgow Uni when he took ill and passed away at Gartnavel Hospital from Addisons Disease and T.B.
Bryan, you're right about his mum passing away from influenza....his Aunt Esther and Uncle Monty raised him. Mum and him were so happy when his brother Tonys daughter Grace visited them in Glasgow. As my daughter previously said Mum and Uncle Pat are buried together at Lambhill Cemetery in Glasgow. God bless them. If you'd like anymore information or photo's please do not hesitate to contact me.
