The late Mr Henry Edward George Hurt, MBE

Henry Hurt passed away peacefully on Wednesday 2nd August, surrounded by his loving family.

He was a marvellous man in so many ways. 

An MBE awarded for services to the knitting industry in Nottinghamshire doesn't really tell his whole story. He was a leading light in the art of Knitted Lace for several decades and successfully led G.H.Hurt & Son for over 50 years. 

A generous man, liked by so many, Henry was also a sportsman, a life long Nottingham Forest fan, an artist, a hand-frame knitter, a mechanic, an innovator, a thoughtful employer, a leader in the local community, a husband, a father and a grandfather. 

We will all miss him greatly.
