It is with considerable sadness that we inform you that Adrian Aylward, Stonyhurst Headmaster from 1996 to 2006, has died at home in Devon with his family by his side. He was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer only a few weeks ago and was released from hospital about a fortnight ago.
In the present circumstances, there will be a private funeral with only the family in attendance.
I understand that all members of our Association will be deeply saddened by this news and will pray for Adrian to be quickly accepted into the company of Our Lord and all the Saints.
We hope that, when the time is right, the Association, together with others, will organise a Memorial Service for Adrian so that we can all pay our respects to such a highly regarded member of our community.
Cards and letters of condolence to the Aylward family should be sent to the address below from where they will be sent collectively to their home.
