17/05/2010 - Ian Thorneycroft loses courageous battle with cancer
Following my email of last week it is with enormous sadness and a very heavy heart that I have to inform you that Ian Thorneycroft, our much loved and sadly missed Managing Director, passed away peacefully in his sleep yesterday evening.
For the last 15 months Ian has fought a heroic battle against a particularly dreadful form of cancer. Throughout, his positive attitude, humour and determination have been an inspiration to all, not just those of us who had the privilege of knowing him but to the whole of the financial services sector. Today’s news coming only a few weeks after Ian and Judith were given the hope that all had been cleared and barely two weeks since that good news was so cruelly reversed it is hard for all of us to take or even comprehend.
We all have our own very special memories of Ian and he will live in our hearts forever.
The Douglas Macmillan Hospice cared for Ian at the end of his life, and therefore Ian's wife Judith has requested that donations are made to www.justgiving.com/IanThorneycroftSimplyBiz in lieu of flowers.
Should you wish to send a card or message these can be sent to Judith Thorneycroft c/o SimplyBiz, Galpharm Stadium, Huddersfield, HD1 6PG.
Funeral arrangements will be advised in due course.
All our thoughts are now with Judith and the family at this incredibly difficult time.
