CRICKET teammates have paid tribute to a young teacher who passed away at the weekend, saying they will miss him immeasurably.

Jeremy Suter, 23, died on Sunday, October 23, after being rushed to hospital where doctors discovered a previously undiagnosed brain tumour.

He was rushed for emergency surgery, but sadly the swelling was too great, his colleagues at Dr Challoner’s Grammar School, in Amersham, have said.

As well as starting his teaching career at the same school he attended as a student, Jeremy was also an avid cricket player for Beaconsfield Cricket Club.

Their chairman, Phil Geach has now paid tribute to the ‘talented’ batsman and wicketkeeper.

He said: “Jeremy has been a member of the club throughout his junior years and in recent years had become a regular member of the 1st XI as well as giving back his time as a coach on Sunday mornings.

“He was clearly a talented batsman and wicketkeeper but most valuably a great club man who would have played for the club for a number of years to come; moreover Jeremy was one of the most thoughtful, considerate and "giving" people whom I have ever known.

“Jeremy never had a bad word to say about anyone nor did I ever hear a bad word said about him. Jeremy was quite simply a wonderful human being and the world is diminished by his departure from it. The club will miss him immeasurably.

“Our thoughts are with Hugh, Margot (Jeremy’s parents) and all of their family at this difficult time.”

The Headmaster at Dr Challoner’s also paid tribute to Mr Suter, while hundreds of messages of support have been left on social media.
