Our deepest condolences to Angela, Britney and Thomas on the passing of Martin. Martin was a highly respected colleague and friend to past and present teachers at South Hornby School over many years. We have many fond memories of Martin's time with us - taking Father Christmas on the back of his motor bike, teaching the Yr6 students how to abseil at Blue Skies, staff social outings, his awesome sense of humour and his endless energy and enthusiasm. You will be sadly missed Martin. Memories live on in all lives that you touched.

My deepest sympathies Angela, Brittany and Thomas on Martin's passing. I'll always remember Martin fondly as a fellow teacher at South Hornby School: his passion for his motor bikes, his artistic skills in constructing set designs for school productions and his deep love for you, his family.
