Keith Thomas Cederholm (in unpublished book manuscript):
"Fritz Cederholm was my dear father who sadly passed away 25 September 2004 (He would have been 88 on 23 October 2004) He was 3rd officer on Fernlane and was unlucky in that he caught malaria fever whilst in West Africa after the sinking. After recovery in New York he saw out the rest of WW2 as 2nd Officer on Montevideo (Ivaran Lines) with Captain Reider Kristiansen, Radio Officer Arvid Naess, and 3rd Officer Solfest Kvam.
He met my mother Nora Payne at the British Council in Liverpool, when King Haakan VII opened the "Norwegian Room" there in 1943, Arvid Naess was with him that day and he met and subsequently married my mother's friend Hilary Craig. Fritz and Nora married in Liverpool (St Michaels Church, Wavertree) on 14 February 1944. It was not the romantic day but the only one they could both get leave! My mother was a nurse and it was not a good time in Liverpool just then.
Fritz stayed in "Montevideo" until early 1950 when he was chief officer. He was able to gain a job in Port of Liverpool on dredgers and floating cranes. Eventually becoming Captain of "Mersey Compass" 2500DWT dredger, and stayed there until he retired in 1979. He has 2 sons, myself Keith born October 1950 and my brother Norman born July 1946. (...)
He was a good proud honest and hardworking man, who because of the terrible times in those dark years and beyond made a life away from his motherland, but he never stopped being Norwegian and he brought us up to love and appreciate a beautiful land and its wonderful people."
