DONALD SHARP c. 1956-57


Thanks to his pal BOBBY IRVINE, Donald Sharp has been identified as the wee boy in our class photo. Donald if you see this why don't you send us a wee email and let us know whereabouts in the world you are now. Your old pal Bobby Irvine is living in Ontario Canada, only an hour away from George Higgins who also lives in Ontario. I wonder how many other Newlands survivors have settled down in Ontario. There seem to be a large population of Scots there.

Thank you for passing on that sad news John. Sadly Donald has now been joined by fellow classmate Liz Mellis (Scotbandit).
