Edward Goldsmith, known as Ted sadly passed away 21st January 2012 aged 88. Ted joined the Fire Service in August 1946, serving first at Preston Circus, Brighton before continuing the rest of his career at Newhaven. The fire service and his family were his whole life. He was so proud of the first fire engine he drove - PN4119 which is now cared for at Amberley Museum and which he loved to visit.
A loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather missed so much by us all.
