Banner of Truth’s Humphrey Mildred dies

On Sunday 31 December, Humphrey Mildred was promoted to glory, aged 89. He leaves behind his wife Ruth, and their four children: Felicity, James, Ben and Pippa.

Born in London in 1934, Humphrey was the third child to Frank, a Baptist Minister, and Ivy Mildred. Evacuated for a brief spell, Humphrey spent most of the war in London.

After the war, for his National Service, Mildred joined the Navy – a bold choice for someone who could not swim! It was there that he was converted after seeing the transformation in a close friend who had been saved.
