I heard via a friend in the U.K. the recent news on Terry Lightfoot following so soon after Kenny Ball.
My late Husband Reg Tracey(who was Kenny's Brother in law) Managed Kenny Ball for many years
and also Terry Lightfoot. I emigrated to Perth, Australia 9 years ago to join my daughters and we were
shocked when friends in the U.K. contacted us and would therefore be grateful if you can pass on our condolances.
I have been sent newspaper reports but wondered if Terry's Wife Iris is still alive as I knew her well but
unlike a mention of Betty Ken's late Wife, can see nothing so far on Iris.
Sincerely, Georgie Tracey
I joined Terry's band on bass in 1974 when Reg was the manager.
I attended the funeral yesterday and Iris and two daughters Melinda and Michelle are still alive-their other daughter unfortunately died of cancer some years ago.
Iris's address should you wish to get in touch is:
20, Lilly Hill,
Olney,
Bucks MK46 5EZ
Hope this is of some help Georgie.
Kind regards,
Mike Godwin.
