Tony will be sadly missed by his family and friends.
We are conscious that some people from his time at the School may not be in contact with us and we would ask if you could pass on this information to those that you know.
As is the usual practice, we would like to place an obituary for Tony in the 2022-2023 OI Journal and would be very grateful for any stories or memories you may wish to share which we could put together for the publication. Please address any contributions to me through oldipswichians@ipswich.school.
Nicholas Allen
OI Chairman
