I am trying to find anyone who knew my father.

Gerry Facey died in Isleworth 10 years ago at the age of 78, but I only found out recently and would like to meet any friends he had or anyone who remembers him, as it would be nice to hear their impressions of him.

I really did not know my father well, due to divorce.

He was an artist, later on a gardener, and his partner was Pat.

He spent a lot of time in The London Apprentice pub and the Hare and Hounds, in Osterley.
