Mum, never smoked, or drank, died of stomach cancer aged 59. so sad I was 27, and found out she had been diagnosed 8 yrs earlier, it was kept a secret from me and my 2 sisters. I often wonder if working in a munitions factory during WW2 may have caused the cancer. she was a very beautiful woman who also only ever rode a bike.
Dad smoked, rolled his own Old Holden no filters, but also never drank, always cycled everywhere, never drove a car, or caught a bus. Had a mild heart attack while riding his bike aged around 79, doctor told him to stop riding his bike and died a few weeks later from a heart attack..
He loved to cycle, it took him about 15 min to cycle to work, on a rough track, he would come home for lunch, get all the weeks shopping on a Saturday from town about 2 miles away. below the only surviving photos I have. (water damaged)
