It's with great sorrow that we inform you of the passing of our beloved father and husband, Andrew Moss, at the age of 72. His passing has left a big void in our lives and he will be sorely missed. We are very grateful for all the kind messages we have already started receiving, they mean a lot to us. Seeing as many of those who knew him are now spread out across the world, we wanted to find a way to capture any memories, stories, thoughts or words that anyone wanted to share. He was a wise, kind, thoughtful, witty, eccentric, mischievous and sensitive soul. Being a teacher was without any doubt his life's purpose which brought him immense pride and joy. He was also a wonderful father, brother, uncle, husband and friend in too many ways to mention. We are grateful to have been a part of his journey and are very proud of what he achieved, and everything he did to encourage and inspire the generations of children that he taught. To quote him in his own words... "What a weird and wonderful life it has been"...

Bridget- I have so many happy memories of the years in the 70s when l was teaching with Andrew at St. George’s English School , Rome. We shared an open-plan plan area and l couldn't have wished for a more enthusiastic and positive colleague - planning, sharing ideas, introducing new topics, generally enjoying working together. The children loved him and l learned a lot watching him teach science and ... technology! with our year 3s and 4s. We took classes on away trips to Florence - in those days the children could sit on the floor in the Uffizi and sketch undisturbed! I was honoured when he asked me to be a godmother to his new baby daughter, Clare. After he moved on to teaching in European Schools we always kept in touch, his witty emails mirrored his great understanding of the peoples of Europe.....he was a real European. Bridget
