MAY I pay a further tribute to Edmund de Rothschild whose death you reported on January 21?
Mr Eddy was a towering figure in our community with a kindly and compassionate nature and a courageous wartime record.
I shall always recall the memorable veterans reunions he organised at Exbury and the stirring sight of watching him attend the Association of Jewish Ex-Servicemen and Women’s Parade, despite his frailty, at the Cenotaph in London.
He will be greatly missed.
DR JULIAN LEWIS MP, New Forest East.
