Lt.Cdr. Ian Walker-Spicer RN (rtd.)
Beg to report the sad passing of our dear friend and shipmate, Ian who has died.
Ian was without any shred of a doubt a one-off. He was funny, sometimes outrageously eccentric, but above all he was an incredibly kind and unfailingly generous man.
Farewell and 'Adieu' old friend.
Phillip Eggington
Also to the memory of Phil, who along with his late wife Doreen (of blessed memory) was one of the founding members of HMS way back in 1994.
Phil passed away at home in Portugal in August 2025, following a short illness.
Rest easy, Shipmate
