Had another message from his grandson, Nick Lahey Bean, who said


"I really like the website BCC and hadn't come across it before.
One piece more of info on Harry Blakeway if you're interested. He was so well respected at Barts Hospital that when he died his colleagues clubbed together to raise funds to support his widow (my grandmother) Marjorie Blakeway (nee Griffith). That in itself is impressive, but all the more so when you learn that she was able to use those funds to sell their flat in London and buy a five bedroom detached home in Woking, Surrey where she lived for the rest of her life - a wonderfully gracious lady"
