JOHN HAYDON

 

Sadly, we have learnt of the passing on John Haydon on 5th January 2024. John left the School left in 1960 having joined in 1953

His younger brother David, a school year younger, also went to the Math. Both became doctors, David as a GP in Buckinghamshire and John in the Royal Navy. John's eldest son, Richard, followed suit and is a doctor in Australia.

Sadly, John had a massive stroke and ended up in Haslar Military Hospital and although he was poorly there was still a spark of enthusiasm for life. Subsequently he left the Navy and joined the Ministry of Defence where he was an expert in deep sea diving. But more recently he was a shadow of his former self physically but mentally as bright as ever.

We send our sincere condolences to his family and friends.

 

Our thanks go to David Swan for providing the information about John’s life.
