Son's tribute after 'wonderful' shopkeeper who ran stores in Nottinghamshire dies

Tributes have been paid to a popular shopkeeper who has died. John Ingall was well-known for running John's News in Ilkeston and previously owned a number of shops across Nottinghamshire.

He died aged 80 on January 15 and now his son has paid tribute to him, describing him as "wonderful". John opened his first store in West Bridgford in 1966 after he married his first wife.

Following the death of his parents, John and his wife took over their shop in Station Road, Spondon, Derby. But when John heard a rumour that an Asda would be coming to Spondon, he quickly sold and moved to Bulwell.
