Very sad news – Major (Rtd) Andrew (Andy) Kimpton 1/68 RAInf passed away yesterday

 

 

 

 

The following advice has been received from Les Boag:

It is with a very heavy heart that I advise – our fellow OTU Scheyvillian, also a good friend of mine for over 52 years, Andrew Kimpton 1/68 passed away yesterday from a massive heart attack.  Andy’s three children are with Andy’s wife Lorraine now in Canberra and they will advise funeral arrangements as soon as possible.

Best regards

 

Les
