Lost to the village on 10 April 2023

Trevor Green (31 Mar 2009)

Trevor spoke for himself in 2008 (below), before dementia took its toll...

‘I have lived in Eynsham all my life, apart from a wartime stint with the RAF in Norfolk (the far east, as I like to call it) and a few years in Barnard Gate when newly-married. Shirley and I have just celebrated our golden wedding anniversary and have 3 grand-children (two in Eynsham).

‘I started work at an engineering shop in Spareacre Lane, moved on to brick-laying, then turned self-employed in the 60s when John Lopes Road was going up (but don't blame me).

‘I had a great time with the archery group until political correctness got in the way: we used to put on regular shows and handed over thousands to local charities when we closed. But I keep fit with bowling and go beating for corporate events when the chance comes along. I also enjoy winding up Bill Heine from time to time, though I think he's seen through my act as the village idiot.’
