Tributes have flooded in following the death of a former teacher remembered as a “lovely man” and “legend” by his ex-pupils.
Eddie McGovern, 61, taught geography at The Grange on Latham Avenue in Runcorn where principal Ian Critchley described him as “much-respected”, adding Mr McGovern will be “greatly missed but he won’t be forgotten”.
The school announced the death of its former colleague on social media on Saturday, reporting he had died on Friday, accompanied by pictures showing his fun and theatrical sides.
