Skellern/ Cooper Deaths
« on: Friday 22 January 21 02:43 GMT (UK) »
Hi all, I'm trying to confirm the deaths of, Raymond Vincent Skellern, 1981, and his wife, Yvonne Skellern, nee Cooper, last year.
Think they are too young for BDM's historic records and haven't found a mention in the papers.
They were both ex RNZAF. Last record is E/Rs in 1981.
