L GRO i I He previously lived at The Post Office
‘Holyhead Road Gaerwen. Anglesey “LL66 6DB.

Mr Thomas has informed us that he and his wife (Mrs EV Thomas) had a joint
Life Insurance Endowment Policy held with The Phoenix Insurance Company,
which has been subsequently surrendered.

Mr Thomas has produced two remittance advices from Phoenix, which I have
associated for information. Could you please tell the following?

done in this case?
