Peter John SHEARD 1923 – 2002

Peter was born on 14^th May 1923, the youngest child of Wilfred Herbert SHEARD and Arabella TUTIN.

We know very little of his childhood, he certainly talked very little about it as with any aspect of his life. He did tell us that he had worked for the RAC Club in London and that he had once been offered a job by Winston Churchill but it is not known if he ever did work for him. He did attend Winston Churchill’s funeral on 30^th January 1965 but we think as part of the Royal Naval Reserve contingent but there is no doubt about the honour he felt to be there.
