Ms Fiona Strachan

Remembering my beloved brother, Oswin, with thanks for all the kindnesses over our lifetimes. He cared to make the world a better place for so many people as well as our family. I shall think of him every time I hear a Swanage Railway locomotive whistle, he was a railway man through and through as well as the loveliest of men.

Mrs Angela Cox

A wonderful and long lasting friend since meeting at Sussex university in 1965.
