search for Julie. He didn’t know much about her, he never bothered<br />

with that side of their relationship, all he knew that her name was<br />

Julie Croft and she was from Cleethorpes.<br />

He arrived in Cleethorpes in the winter of 1991 and spent the next<br />

few months trying to track down the Croft family. He came across<br />

many people with the same surname, but none knew, or had ever<br />

heard of, Julie Croft. Now in his late 50’s, his hearing had become<br />

seriously impaired and he could only hear clearly on sporadic<br />

occasions. His only lead came early in 2002 when he read an<br />

obituary in the Grimsby Evening Telegraph, of a Mr Ronald Croft-<br />

Baker who had passed away. It listed those who attended the<br />

funeral. Wayne noticed the daughter’s name was Mrs. Julie<br />

Braithwaite, and for some reason, Wayne knew that it was his Julie.<br />

He tracked down the only relative who remained in Cleethorpes<br />

from the Croft-Baker family, which was Ronald’s elderly sister. She<br />

confirmed Julie Croft-Baker was indeed her niece and spent time in<br />

America, but she never returned to Cleethorpes. All the old woman<br />

could tell him was that she had seen Julie at the funeral along with<br />

her husband, but that was the first time in many years that she’d had<br />

any contact with her. She told him that Julie only came, paid her<br />

respects, and then left. She had no other information. He was<br />

confused as to why Julie told him her name was Croft, and wished<br />

he'd paid more attention to the details when they were together. He<br />

bought a house and lived alone until the latter part of 2008. He'd<br />

bought a set of drums and a small Yamaha keyboard to entertain<br />

himself. He also composed a few songs, although he had trouble<br />

performing them. Although he wore a hearing-aid, he still couldn’t<br />

hear the lyrics clearly. His deafness became a burden and he'd been<br />

robbed several times, as word spread that a deaf old man lived<br />

alone. He became afraid to stay at home and felt too old to return to<br />

Canada or the States. Cleethorpes became his home and he still had<br />

a flicker of hope that he would find Julie.
