McMinn was flown to Geisinger Medical Center in Danville for surgery to treat his injury. His condition is not known.
Back in the mid-seventies I wrote some stuff for an HTV film which included the line: Photographs are just memories, captured on a screen, and the snaps I include in these TRMs undoubtedly prove my point. Here are some of your memories received following last week s pictures. Firstly - re the Milford Fishmarket snap: From Nicky Lovell (via WT online) My dad started as a box runner at 15, and still worked the docks til he was 68. Ann Davies (WT online) Remember going there with my Grampy. Christian April Smart (WT online) Wonder if my grandfather Bobby Whisby is in the photograph.
