Auke Noordhof

[Tony Gunby]

With great sadness, the Association has learned of the passing of Auke Noordhof on 15 June 2021.  As a young man, Auke had witnessed the crash of 57 Squadron Lancaster DX-J NE 126 over Hoogkerk, Groningen, Netherlands on 23 May 1944.   Auke and his family became good friends of our former Secretary Gordon Lodge who’s father had been the navigator on the aircraft.  Auke attended our Reunion on a number of occasions and was a charming man to chat with.  Our thoughts are with Auke’s family as this time.
