Rest in Peace Mr. Shaw

I'm posting this because the man in the story was a lobotomy victim:

A HUMAN skeleton found in the field in Holywell had to be identified by scars on the bones on the remains.

Mystery will forever surround the death of Ronald Shaw, 71, who disappeared from his home in Ellesmere Port on July 28 last year.

Mr Shaw (pictured), an ex-serviceman, was a diagnosed schizophrenic and was commonly known as a wanderer.

Mr Raymond Shaw described his brother as very fastidious and had a particular peculiarity in that he would keep a running diary of his daily events. A vital piece of evidence in identifying the body was the scarring on the skull from a lucotomy (lobotomy) operation Mr Shaw had undergone as a child.
