Announcement of the passing of Craig Slingsby

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our colleague and friend Craig Slingsby, who passed away in the hours of this Tuesday morning, the week of the 11th December.

Craig started with us in 1995, nearly 30 years ago, and has since been working as a Senior Service and Calibration Engineer. His work has taken him across the globe, focusing on mainly our Asia/Pacific region, where he visited often. We are sure the contacts he so frequently met there will also miss Craig dearly. 

Born in 1964 and having joined in his own Father's footsteps, Craig has been a member of the James Heal family for 3 decades.

It is incredibly difficult for us to accept the loss that we face in the wake of Craig's passing, though we hope that you will join us in commemorating Craig and his life.
