Erics drive enthusiasm and vision, along with Bob Malia and later Mike Greaves, was the main reason why the Sheffield Haemophilia Centre became a force in the field. Driven but also compassionate. Impatient and a serial tweaker but the outcomes were always good. A nightmare to travel with but fantastic company. I personally owe him a great debt for unwavering support.

So sad to hear that Eric had died. We have such happy memories, stretching back to the Royal Infirmary where he was so kind and supportive to us as students and in our early training years. We remember him with gratitude and affection.

Our heartfelt condolences go to Eric's family. He was an absolute legend and will always remain in my memory, especially the day we went golfing in Guernsey! A classic day and always makes me smile when I recall it.
