Alan Clarke
Alan Clarke Died December 2019.
Alex Woolard (LEO Engineer) reports:
I have to report the sad news that Alan Clarke who worked at Minerva Road, Kidsgrove and Winsford from 1962 until the Winsford plant closed, has died. Alan was a commissioning engineer working on LEO III peripherals, and subsequently System 4, and the New Range 2900 family. He had a long battle with cancer and finally lost the fight on 9th December 2019 with his family around him. He continued to live in the same house that he bought when he moved up to Kidsgrove in 1965, after the English Electric merger, and leaves his wife Patricia and a son and daughter. I worked with Alan both at Minerva Road and Kindsgrove/Winsford and always remembered him as a smart guy, and a pleasure to work with.
