Gunner Ivan George Francis R.I.P

sad to have to tell you that Ivan passed away, I was contacted by his Daughter Kelly to pass on the sad news. Ivan served with 42 from 1962 to 1971.
If you remember Ivan could you please advise me what battery he served with as Kelly doesnt know. Kelly will be advising me of the funeral date time etc asap. RIP mate.

Sorry to hear about the passing of yet another Gunner from 42 Regt, I can't recall the name, and the only photos I have are of Ted and Bill Francis. RIP

Re: Gunner Ivan George Francis R.I.P

I remember a Gnr Francis in 68bty between 1959-65 but never knew his first name...........I rather think he was on the guns but there again not sure. Anyway it is always sad to hear of a Gunner passing on to hopefully better pastures new. RIP my friend.

Re: Gunner Ivan George Francis R.I.P

The name rings a bell but cant recall his face. Chris does Kelly have a photo for us all to see.
RIP George and condolences to his family and friends.
