Does Anyone Remember Skip? I am Also Looking For The Son of Irene (Rene) Maiden Name Reeves.

Hello, does anyone remember Skip? He used to take boys from poorer family on day trips, swimming, to the beach etc. Also, I'm looking for the son of Irene Reeves, this wasn't her married name, they may have been Hussey. She was my mum's favourite auntie on her dad's side, and I'm looking into the family tree and getting stuck. Please do reply to this post, or email me on atableofgreenfields@hotmail.com.

Yes, I remember Skip, he taught me how to swim at Thornton Heath Swimming Baths, I think I was about seven or eight. I have only ever known him as Skip, do you have his real name as I have often wondered what it was?
