Doris Betty Howe

She was my Fathers sister – and always known apparently as Betty. Lost in Wallers Raid where she worked.  CREDIT: Gary Howe

Doris Howe [or Betty] as she was known in the family was my Dad’s [James Culham bn 1920] maternal cousin.  He was in the Odeon on the afternoon of the Waller’s raid and when he came out began digging in the rubble as he heard a woman calling for help.  He said all the time he was digging he was worrying about his cousin Betty who I understand worked as a waitress in Wallers.  Dad was on leave from the army and had to leave the site to get back to his base which I believe was in Norwich.
