I saw this on another MC Forum and thought appropriate to post here:
10th March 2017 - A statement from the Surtees Family
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our husband and father, John Surtees CBE.
John, 83, was admitted to St Georges Hospital, London in February with an existing respiratory condition and after a short period in intensive care he passed away peacefully this afternoon. His wife, Jane and daughters, Leonora and Edwina were by his side.
