Christopher Scott, H’61

Christopher E. Scott, 1944 -1962

Those who were at school with him will learn with great regret of the death of Christopher Scott in a tragic accident at Gwelo shortly before Christmas. He was just 18.

Christopher came to Falcon in 1958 and left at the end of 196l having completed his School Certificate. He then went to a school in Gwelo for his VIth Form course.

Those who were with him in Hervey House will remember him as a quiet boy with a great sense of humour. We should like to express our deepest sympathy to his parents on their tragic loss.

Had two weeks hols after Falcon, then joined the BSAP for a 2-year contract; did Police Display, horse escorts & a posting to Inyanga (hardship huh!), then bought myself out in June '81. Moved to UK a month later, did a course in advertising and marketing, then got a job with a small ad agency in Wimbledon before moving to my current job with Grass Roots Group, where I design processes for motivation websites. Home life = wife Nicola + 4 daughters & 2 sons; also help out at my local lifeboat station, and am keen on photography (www.flickr.com/photos/bushtick), singing with a chamber choir and a bit on the side for the Falcon Old Boys.
