Sir Mark Tully KBE 1935-2026
It is with deepest regret that we have heard of the death today in hospital in New Delhi of Mark Tully.
He had been our Patron for over 20 years and was a constant and invaluable source of support, advice,
and wise counsel.
Our most sincere condolences go to his family and loved ones.
There will be a full tribute in the next issue of the ‘Darjeeling Mail’.
David Mead
Chairman
