Extract

Members of the Association will deeply regret to hear of the death of F C. Boon. Readers of the Gazette and members attending the Annual Meetings will not need to be told of the immense work he did for the Association, in his contributions to the Gazette, his part in discussions, the way he literally carried the London Branch as Secretary and as Chairman, his years of strenuous and fruitful service on the Teaching Committee. His stalwart defence of the so-called “duffer”, the essential soundness of his outlook, his fatherly treatment (the boys at Dulwich called him “Daddy Boon”), his patience and kindliness in debate, by these he was known.
