Death of former SOF President & Trustee for many years as well as College Governor

It is with great sadness that we report the death of Jim Blythe (K48-54) just before Christmas.  He died on the morning of 19 December 2024 aged 86.  He’d not been good with dementia for last few years, but he was greatly involved with the Society and The School over many years.  He was the first boy across the threshold at Brandeston Hall and went on to be SOF President, Governor and SOF Trustee for many years.

He is also listed in Distinguished OFs for his plant nursery business click here.

No details of funeral as yet.
