Does anyone know what happened to Jack Greaves and his sister Marion? I was their neighbour 40 years ago. Kieth with the White Merc was my driver when I was doing the school runs. My Husband Tony Crookes used to drive a black cab initially for Burton Street garage, then bought his own, Very happy times unfortunatly Tony died last year.....
