Lydia Anne Burcher

Consultant anaesthetist Birmingham Children's Hospital 1997–2000 (b 1962; q Birmingham 1984; MRCP, FRCA), d 16 October 2000. Lydia trained in general medicine before embarking on her anaesthetic career and specialising in paediatric anaesthesia. She took on the role of anaesthetic college tutor at Birmingham Children's Hospital in 1999 to fulfil her interest in education and training. As a colleague, she was always professional, juggling family life and the rigours of a full time NHS appointment with cheerful enthusiasm. She enjoyed reading, music, good food, wine, and walking, and had developed a recent passion for sailing. She leaves a son.

He was a great fan of Elvis, loved motorcars, and was extremely proud of his recently acquired silver grey, mark II, “Inspector Morse” Jaguar. He collected model cars and trains, and implements for left handed people. An enthusiastic traveller, he spent a short holiday in China a few months before his death visiting Beijing, the Great Wall, and the Terracotta Warriors. He leaves a wife, Sheila, and two daughters.
