James Hehir
The announcement of James Hehir's sudden death is desperately sad news. All of our thoughts must be first with his family, friends and colleagues. I also want to say this: James did more for Ipswich than any chief executive could ever be expected to do. Both visionary and utterly pragmatic, he loved the town and was passionate about its future. I have only known him for a little over two years but I shall already miss his driving force, his decency and his kindness.
