In memoriam brings to the attention of Fellows and Collegiate Members the deaths of colleagues and friends. Obituaries paying tribute to the life and work of those whose deaths have been reported in In memoriam can be found on the College website: www.rcpe.ac.uk/obituaries.
Fellows and Collegiate Members are invited to provide the Obituaries Editor (editorial@rcpe.ac.uk) with information that will enable us to write or commission obituaries. Self-written obituaries to be held in readiness by the Obituaries Editor will always be welcome.
