Friends of a much-loved country dancing fan are desperately trying to find out details of his funeral.

Bernard Bradshaw died on September 15 at the James Paget Hospital of natural causes aged 86.

Friends of Mr Bradshaw's in Hemsby are keen to pay their respects at his funeral, but do not know who his next of kin are and have not seen any announcements about a funeral in the family notices section of this newspaper.

One friend from the Acorn Country Music Club, Peggy Sutton, said she had even contacted the Coroner's Office to ask, but they are not allowed to reveal that information for confidentiality reasons.

He loved country dancing and taught it to club members and at schools.

Mr Bradshaw spent many years in Hemsby before more recently moving to Beatty Road in Great Yarmouth.
