Bob Seaton
I am sad anounce the death of Bob Seaton a postal worker at the North West D.O. in Edinburgh for around 20 years he was a young man age around 48 who was dignosed with cancer late last year, not only was he a fellow worker iam proud to call him a close friend, for the last 8 years he worked as the a level tasks duty in the office and unlike some in this postion he did not see himself as a manager lackey but he was my man in sideman (i was the rep there for 12 years) and kept me one step ahead of royal mail managment. i send my deepest thoughts to his wife and the rest of his family.

Re: Bob Seaton
My condolences to his family and friends.
The time has come to stop turning the other cheek, time to stop shaking our heads in bitter dismay, time to stop mumbling our angry words.
The time has come for union.

Re: Bob Seaton
Deepest sympathies to all. I lost a friend of many years to cancer recently. Cancer has no respect for age or family.

Re: Bob Seaton
A sad day. I have had dealings with Bob on many occasions over the last few years. always very highly spoken of by postmen and managers alike. Rest in peace friend.
I am a postman and I kept the faith and I kept voting, not for new labour but for the working man.
