I am John Bishop's Son, Brad.
Just thought i would let you all know that my dad passed away peacefully on 05/11/2018.
I know a few of you would have read some of his poems and chatted with him briefly...
If you knew my dad personally, or just want to pay your respects, you can do so by either attending the Funeral or Wake.
Gilroes Crematorium 30/11/2018 at 16:00 followed by a wake at Newfoundpool wmc 17:00 onwards.
Regards
Brad

Sgt G A Long RCAF
Sgt D W B Pimm
Sgt J J Davidge
Sgt Long RCAF rests in Oxford ( Botley ) Cemetery ,Sgt Davidge lies in Burton-on-the-Wolds Cemetery , the others were claimed by the relatives.

Any known if this book will be put in to print ?
I got this answer from the people at were going to print it Halsgrove Publishing.
" Unfortunately we never published Austin Ruddy’s followup book - I have looked on amazom and can find no mention of it so assume it was never printed. I have spoken to our Commissioning Editors and there are no plans to print it in the immediate future.
