It is with great sadness that I (Steve Gilmour) heard today that John (Scouse) Oates ex RAF Apop friend and colleague passed away on 5th April 2019.
RIP Scouse.
Merseyside Coroner’s Office is appealing for information to find the next of kin of a man from Bootle who recently died.
John Oates, 63 years, died on Friday 5 April at his home address in Orrell Lodge on Rafter Avenue, Bootle.
His death is not being treated as suspicious.
