Richard Matthewman (FS 54-58) has sent in a brief update:
“After leaving St Bees I worked in Norfolk and Lincolnshire with two companies of estate agents, surveyors and auctioneers and then latterly spent two years as a farm manager in Suffolk. I emigrated to Canada in 1967 and joined Waddingtons of Toronto (the oldest auction house in Canada) as an auctioneer and appraiser. In 1981 my wife and I formed our own auction company in Mississauga, Ontario. Two years ago, after over 50 years as an auctioneer, I retired and we joined our daughter's family in Vancouver. Bluntly put, we are enjoying retirement and being grandparents.”
