I was saddened to read in the latest Medal News of the passing of Murray Shaw. For many years I used to chat with Murray at his table where his medals were always mounted on card and displayed vertically. For a while he had the Forbes Elandslaagte group and we used to discuss the eligibility for the BWM.

In failing health, Murray ceased dealing and moved to the other side of the tables. I last met him at the OMRS in September when we enjoyed a brief catch up.

The worst possible news, although, I cannot remember the last time I saw him, it must have been a few years ago now.
