Stephen Humphrey

[solar]

I am very sorry to report the sudden death of Stephen Humphrey.

Stephen was the former Southwark local studies librarian. He possessed an encyclopaedic knowledge of the history of Southwark and regularly gave talks to local groups. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

May he rest in peace.

Oh that's sad, I know Stephen was well respected and liked amongst my ex colleagues in Southwark. Please pass on condolences if you are able.

I'm very sorry to hear this. It was such a pleasure to meet with someone who knew their job so well.

Is that the Stephen who latterly worked as a library assistant at Dulwich library.

I know a Stephen who dotted about between Dulwich, Grove Vale and Nunhead libraries?

Condolences regardless

Sad news. Stephen can be seen in The Secret History of our Streets, Reverdy Road, which is on iplayer and YouTube. I watched it yesterday.

Sad news indeed - I have known Stephen Humphrey for a few years now and have always

been amazed by his incredible knowledge & love of local history. he warmed so well to

his subject whatever part of Southwark he was talking about - always a pleasure to be

in his company. R.I.P Stephen - you will be missed.
