Jeremy John Witts (18 Jun 1950 - 3 Jun 2020)

Jerry was a great guy and I am proud to have known him for the short time I did. Blue skies my friend.

A kind, generous and supportive colleague at UCS; a man I feel privileged to have worked with. Fond memories of skiing and chatting in Macugnaga. A great bloke.

I am honoured to have counted Jerry as a friend.
He was always a kind and generous man and modest too. Such good stories and many good memories.

RIP Jerry, will always remember you as a fellow 1st tourist, exceptional Boss and great leader.

Jerry was a great man, a wonderful leader and a dear friend to me. We had a relationship forged in peace and cemented in war and we were an unbeatable team together, nothing was too difficult.

I was always SEngO and he was always JJ and everyone knew who we were talking about and the love and respect we had for each other.

He was a great man, a wonderful leader and a dear friend to me. We had a relationship forged in peace and cemented in war and we were an unbeatable team together, nothing was too difficult, and we demonstrated to the world how to operate the Tornado in war with the minimum risk to life.

I was always SEngO and he was always JJ and everyone knew who we were talking about and the love and respect we had for each other.

Dear Jerry,

With love and fond memories.

From all at University College School

My memories of Jerry go back to Number 48 course Basic Flying Training at RAF Leeming. He was then already showing the qualities that led to his distinguished military career. He was a good man, one of the best, and I am proud to have know him. My condolences to his family who have lost a shinning example of a man who exuded courage, bravery and leadership.

In memory of my dear brother, Jerry.

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings

In memory of my dear brother, Jerry. He was born to fly:

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings...

God bless Jerry, A true friend of long-standing and a much-loved member of the family. You really were a 'Top Man'.
With love from us all.

A truly compassionate and sincere gentleman. The best Chair of Governors with whom I ever worked and a loyal friend. Miss you.

Will always remember with fondness Jerry rescuing me from a garage in Washington during a downpour on my visit to him and Liz - the perfect host!
Rest on the wings of the clouds.
Love Sue
