One of life’s all-time Greats passed away last month.  Eddie Jordan.

Formula One team owner, driver, journalist, musician, investor, media personality, entrepreneur, rugby club owner – and ‘Elder’ who people turn to – is no longer with us.

One of Red Rose’s Spartans – Ian Bolger – sent me a brilliant note from Keith O’Loughlin summarising the lessons he learned from Eddie.
