His daughter Susan Preece praised her father
and said she couldn't be prouder. “He's still driving, he does his own
gardening, looks after himself. He tells me off, he still tells me off like
he would tell any child off. He means the world to me, and not just because
of what he's done in the Normandy veterans but he's just an awesome dad. I’m
just so proud of him”. |
