My name is Anthony Medhurst, my mothers name was Florence Streeter and I think he was her Uncle.
I belong to Winkle club and they are having a service on the 19th december and can remember someone. As I am a Winkler I thought it would be apt to remember him as he was a lifeboatman and also a distant relative.
