Resolved unanimously – That it is with great sadness that the Members of this Honourable Court learn of the death of their friend and colleague, Deputy Robin Eve.

Robin faithfully represented the Ward of Cheap and served continuously on this Court for nearly 34 years. He was a member of various City Corporation Committees becoming Chairman of the Establishment Committee and on more than one occasion Chairman of the Board of Governors of the City of London Freemen’s School, which was particularly significant for him bearing in mind that he was a former pupil and old boy of the School.

Robin’s civic career culminated in his being elected chairman of the City Lands & Bridge House Estates Committee and, therefore, Chief Commoner in 2000.

Throughout his illness, Robin showed great courage and determination and his colleagues on this Honourable Court take this opportunity to express to Ann and to his family, their most sincere condolences at this sad and painful time for them.
