I remember Garth well, he used to come over to "A" Coy in Celle quite often, as his brother was also in 3 RGJ. I remember him as a soft spoken man with a quick wit and a wry smile. I met Garth many years later in south London, he had not changed and I reconized him instantly, he was once again just as amiable as he was in Celle.

One more leaving so early.

My condolences to all his family.
