It is with great sadness we write to let you know that John Cowdall, former Chairman of Governors, passed away peacefully on Friday the 10th of January surrounded by his family.

Details of the funeral and an appreciation of his life and extraordinary contribution to and love of Stonyhurst will follow.

We are sad to report that Hans died on the 24th December 2019 as a result of injuries sustained in a car accident whilst on holiday in Mexico City. Hans was born in Holland and then came to Stonyhurst in 1954, where the Jesuits forged his devotion to the Catholic faith and to the game of rugby. In November last year Hans attended the Association annual dinner at Beaumont along with his brothers Patrick OS62 and Mark OS72. An obituary will be published at a later date. There will be a private family funeral in Toronto on the 6th January 2020. May he rest in peace.
