On September 4, we received the following sad news from Dennis J. Drumm, executive chairmanof John Hornby Skewes & Co., Ltd.:

It is with immense sadness that I must announce the death of our Company’s founder John H. Skewes, who passed away peacefully whilst he slept at his home during the night of September 4th, 2024, aged 90.

Born in 1933, John Skewes, was an archetypal sales professional, marketer and ideas man who worked in our industry from January 1960 and then went on to found John Hornby Skewes & Co. Ltd., in October 1965, working tirelessly for his business until retiring in March 2016.

A mentor to many, John Skewes exhibited the kind of Yorkshire grit, tenacity, determination, and sheer hard work, which is famous for overcoming adversity, producing tremendous success and being an example for all to learn from.

He will be sorely missed.
