He did not suffer fools gladly, but he was as kind as he was fierce. His wife, Grace Horne, describes him as a shy man who wore his profession like a superhero’s cape. “As a doctor, he had the confidence to do anything.

He wrote more than 125 peer reviewed papers and edited several books, including Bancroft’s Theory and Practice of Histological Techniques (2018). He was the driving force behind the UK Cardiovascular Pathology Network and a contributing author to consensus statements from the Association for European Cardiovascular Pathology (AECP), of which he …
