Description

John Holmes, a retired power station worker from Burntwood, England, passed away due to lung cancer and asbestosis, likely linked to asbestos exposure. His family seeks former colleagues, particularly those who worked with him at Parsons Peebles Limited between 1970-1972, to understand his exposure. John was an erection engineer who worked at various UK power stations, including Cottam Power Stations near Retford and Trawsfynydd Power Station in Wales. His widow, Hazel, expressed the familys desire to understand how he was exposed, as John was a kind and active man who enjoyed sports and walking groups.
