We are very sorry to notify you of the passing of Nicholas who was at the School from 1944 until 1954.

Nicholas sadly passed away earlier this month, aged 88 years.

We are conscious that some people who knew Nicholas during his time at the School may not be in contact with us and we would be very grateful if you could pass on this information to those that you know.

The funeral will be held at Burstall Church on the 9th December at 12:00.

As is usual practice, we would like to place an obituary for Nicholas in the 2024-25 OI Journal. If you know of any stories or memories which you can pass on to us so we can put them together for the publication we would be most grateful. Please address any contributions to me through oldipswichians@ipswich.school.

Sally Webber
OI Chair

Sad to hear of Nicholas' death. He was a couple of years ahead of me at School but I was aware that he attended Cirencester Agricultural College after he left Ipswich and rose to high office in the NFU.  He was OI President circa 1979 at the time that I was editing the OI magazine and I recall publishing a nice informal photo of him on the farm in the magazine at that time.  It is presumably on the shelves somewhere.
