This page is dedicated to the memory of those connected with the RAF Hunsdon and RAF Sawbridgeworth memorials




John Knight


 
 
John was a member of the HAMG from the beginning. He was always keen to have a memorial built at RAF Sawbridgeworth which was very near his home in Allens Green, where he used to watch the activities from the airfield as a boy.
John died in August 2012.
 
 

Roy Howe

 
Roy Howe, a great friend and supporter of the HAMG, died on 10th December 2015. Roy served in the Second World War as an airframe fitter with 38 Group RAF on Stirling and Halifax aircraft and was a standard bearer for the Nazeing RAFA. He proudly attended all the group's memorial events until he became ill last year.


Trevor Edwards
 

 

Trevor Edwards 1940~2015, laid a wreath on the Hunsdon airfield memorial since 2006 on behalf of the Lodge Of The Legion, and through his many masonic contacts helped us to raise the necessary funding towards the Hunsdon Roll Of Honour memorial dedicated  in June 2012. Trevor assisted in the unveiling of the Roll Of Honour memorial, and was also member of the Hunsdon Microlight Club.
