Attached to this post is a photo of the QM U15 rugby team from 1947 sent in by son of Tom Allen (QM 1943 to 1950) who was Captain of this team. His brother Cliff, 5 years his junior, was also a pupil at Queen Mary’s.

Sadly, Tom passed away on 12th June 2022 in Grimsby shortly before his 90th birthday. His son Duncan tells us he led a very full life.

An obituary was posted in the local paper as a tribute to Tom showcasing how full of charisma he was and featuring just some of his great achievements. You can read more about Tom Allen here: https://www.grimsbytelegraph.co.uk/news/tributes-paid-founder-grimsbys-first-7295585
