Tribute to James Furlong

By johnredwood | Published: June 21, 2020

I was shocked to learn from the news today that one of the people senselessly murdered in  Reading this week-end was James Furlong. I see  that James was widely admired as an inspirational teacher at the Holt School. It adds even more poignancy to our grief, thinking of the good he was doing for so many pupils. They too are now directly plunged into deeper sadness by this evil act.
