We took quite a few photos of the group there, but I cannot get access to them to show on this page. He had good memories of the place and having an older brother (Paul) there made it all the better. <br \/>I remember the name Mr Chopin mentioned a lot!!<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: arial\"><br \/>I will close his Facebook account shortly, but seeing he was a member of the &#8220;I survived wyre farm school&#8221; I thought I&#8217;d inform you of his passing <br \/>Regards <br \/>Sonia Tranter&#8221;<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: arial\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: arial;font-size: large\"><b>Sonia also sent us this little bio of Stuart Tranter<\/b><\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: arial\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial\"><span>Stuart left school to work as a butcher for the co-op. His first job was chopping up lambs which he found a bit crazy as the weeks before he had been hand feeding some at the local farm that he did quite a bit of work there. He met me in &#8217;74 and we married in &#8217;79. He retrained to go into industry as a Turner, which he then used to get into company&#8217;s such as, Talbot, Motor Panels and lastly Land Rover when he retired on medical grounds due to a very bad left knee.&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: arial\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: arial\"><span>We bought a place in Spain and enjoyed the last 12 years making it a place for all the family to visit as often as possible. Stuart was known as a &#8220;do-er&#8221; and enjoyed investigating how things worked and ready to help solve all kinds of problems (&#8220;how would Stuart approach or do this&#8221;?) was often said. He was active in the cub scouts for a long time too with the Coventry 46th. He often said that City of Coventry Boarding School, gave him a good grounding and ethos. He was right! He was kind and very thoughtful to everyone, and I was honoured to feel cherished by him. There is a huge void, but I will do my best to carry on his ways.<\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-3jFY2hHC08A\/WhBMI8smoeI\/AAAAAAAAEtQ\/oOAnmhcH9C0vVkbtpXH7AcC4PoAj-eHMQCPcBGAYYCw\/s1600\/12417846_1688153508130235_4186024957077042457_n.jpg\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto\"><span style=\"font-family: arial\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"605\" data-original-width=\"960\" height=\"402\" src=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-3jFY2hHC08A\/WhBMI8smoeI\/AAAAAAAAEtQ\/oOAnmhcH9C0vVkbtpXH7AcC4PoAj-eHMQCPcBGAYYCw\/s640\/12417846_1688153508130235_4186024957077042457_n.jpg\" width=\"640\" \/><\/span><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-family: arial\"><b>Stuart Tranter<\/b> What a good time we had.
