This is very sad news. I knew Bart in the 70's when we were both at Manchester University. He was a lovely man and great fun to be with. Rest in peace. ❤️
My condolences from the Moses family to the Holder and Fox families on the loss of Bartley. He was truly a gentle giant and a highly valued personality who earned that respect merely with an erudite, calm, and quiet demeanour.
My deepest condolences to the entire Holder family. BOFF may be gone but will never be forgotten. May your fond memories of him and the knowledge that he is at peace comfort and sustain you through this difficult time, and may he rest in eternal peace.
