We are very sad to announce that Tony Hough passed away on 15 June 2023 after a short illness.
Tony joined LSE in July 1989 and worked in the Estates Division as a maintenance technician. He was a reliable member of the team, always happy to help others and assist his colleagues whenever he could.
Tony was a keen walker, having walked most of the South Coast path over the years he also walked the Pennine way and many other paths aross the country. In more recent years Tony and his mates turned to circular walks, always ending at the pub.
He was also a good photographer and carried his camera with him most of the time. In his spare time, Tony made and played guitars. Once he’d made them he would often give them away – there are a couple of people at LSE that have been given them over the years.
Tony will be sadly missed, and our thoughts are with his family.
I was very saddened to here this. Tony was a softly spoken true gentleman, I was always pleased to see him around campus and he was so helpful when completing jobs in Catering. We will miss his calm presence on campus. My thoughts go out to his family and friends.
My condolence goes to Tony Hough’s family and colleagues at the LSE. We will surely miss him.
This was so sudden for us in Maintenance. Tony will be missed by us. Some of us from Maintenance were able to attend his funeral service and pass on our condolences in person to his family. Tony had worked many years at the LSE and made many friends across the campus.
RIP Tony.
