Eldryd was quite simply one of the most inspirational person I have had the privilege to meet throughout my life. I cannot remember the first meeting, but as a young surgeon he brought me into his International Health Consortium group to explore collaboration with colleagues in Uganda. His enthusiasm and positive approach to forging relationships with those he sought to support was infectious, and visionary. I never forget him going out of his way to meet me by suggesting a curry meal together close to Paddington station for my benefit. Every thought he suggested for advancing work across the globe was a pearl of wisdom, and his network of friends everywhere was enormous. I am deeply saddened by the thought of not seeing him again, but his legacy is great and will continue to inspire and motivate. A true gentleman. Deepest sympathies to all his family.
