We regret to announce that our President, Jill Paton Walsh, has died.
Chair of the Society, Seona Ford, said “Jill was a highly skilled writer. She continued the Wimsey-Vane novels by working on DLS’s own manuscript to produce Thrones, Dominations, then continued with A Presumption of Death, The Attenbury Emeralds and The Late Scholar. Jill was a loyal President and supportive of our endeavours. She attended our Annual Convention at the University of East Anglia in 2019. She will be greatly missed.”
