I have only just learned about Tim Owston's passing and am very sad to learn it. I worked with Tim when I convened the MA in History and Politics at the University of York. He was an extremely efficient administrator, and I had many interesting conversations with him about local history. He was also my neighbour, and I often bumped into him on Bishopthorpe Road. I shall miss his smiling face and optimism.
