Very sad news.
I was lucky enough to attend Barrow 6th Form College in the early years 1982-84.
There was a brilliant “can do” attitude and a buzz about the place,which was years ahead of its time- and in a large part due to his drive and vision.
Great memories ,my condolences to all of the family.
