I just received an e-mail from Ken Cook informing me of the passing Brian Swan's wife Gloria. Brian was a Chippy from the 1st MOBI Intake who went on to become a Captain.
For the past three years, Gloria fought a melanoma that spread throughout her body and finally succumbed, dying peacefully at Neringah Hospital at 0300 on 12th August.
Many members of this site new Brian well and on behalf of you all I would like to extend our condolences Brian and his family.
May Gloria rest in peace.
Gloria Swan
