MacCOLL writes: — I very much regret to report the sudden death of Ted Jackson (Stores Officer Grade B) after a very short illness in the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, on Friday, 21st October. Ted has served RAOC since early 1943. In 1947 he was discharged from war time service as a Corporal when working in the MT Sub-Depot at Bicester and immediately rejoined the staff as a civilian. Since then he has served COD Bicester continuously and most conscientiously in most departments of the Stores Branch. His untimely death came at the age of fifty eight years while filling the appointment of OIC Group 7 in 2 Sub-Depot. He will be remembered by many as an excellent storeman, a caring manager and a good friend. In tribute to his popularity his friends and colleagues filled Piddington Church to capacity at his funeral service on 27th October. On behalf of all mem- bers of staff military and civilian, past and present, who knew Ted, sincere condolences are extended to Mrs Connie Jackson and the family in their tragic loss.
