An announcement from Mike Cotton's daughter......

"It is with much regret and sadness that I let you know that my father passed away very early this morning at the age of 82 following a short stay in a local nursing home. He worked for the BBC from 1956-1989. He will be missed. Please let any/all others that knew or worked with him this sad but not unexpected news.

Thank you
Ian,Janet and Androulla Cotton."

Hello to the Cotton family. After reading the Smith enquiry report this evening I have just searched for Mike - I am so sorry and sad to find that he died so recently, I wish I'd looked for him sooner.

I have fond memories of sunny afternoons in your garden in Hounslow, and the all-weather daffodils. I will find time this weekend to celebrate your father's kindness and friendship to me while I worked at the BBC. Sending my very best wishes to you all...
