Chris Snuggs: "Shakey was apocryphally famous for throwing boardrubbers, including out of the window of his classroom. However, I knew him for 6 years, including 2 as my Housemaster in Berners, and I never heard, saw or knew of him doing an unkind or thoughtless thing. He was a consummate teacher and gave his heart to WHS, including many school trips in his holidays and of course the badminton club over many years. His was an awesome career and life."
