Ian believed in the right to die with dignity and was most supportive of Hospice Organizations. I think people will remember him for many reasons. His ability to overcome profound dyslexia is fully documented in the autobiography he wrote in 2007. “A Dyslexic Doc’s Memoirs” [ www.dyslexicdoc.com ] Ian loved tennis, swimming, music, international travel, and loved to sing with a rich baritone voice. Last but not least, their Dandie Dinmont and West Highland Terriers. Ian was actively interested in the Ohio Innocent Project, attempting to get Ryan Widmer a man he had never met or spoken to, exonerated for a crime he had been falsely convicted. For the last ten years of his life, Ian became an activist embarking on a crusade to help women young and old discover breast cancers early. His liaison with Harvard Radiology Professor Dan Kopans and Professor Kit Vaughan of the University of Cape Town, hopefully in the near future, will produce a combination of the D3 [DBT] Mammography machine with ultrasound, capable of discovering up to 95% of early, curable breast cancers. His late parents, world-renowned Anesthesiology Professor Harry Grant- Whyte, and his mother Denoon were important loving role models. Ian leaves behind the love of his life Rosemary, and two adult children, Robert and Sandra.

Excerpt taken from the British Racing Drivers’ Club: The Heart of British Motor Racing It is with great regret that we must inform members of the death of Bruce Johnstone last Thursday 3 March at the age of 85. Born in Durban, Bruce came to the United Kingdom in his teens, ostensibly to train at Cranwell to join the Royal Air Force. However, he soon deviated from the intended path by taking up motor-cycle racing and scrambling, competing at such West Country venues as Castle Combe. On returning to South Africa after 12 months in the UK, he started racing cars, initially in an MG which was followed by the Volvo engined Speedy Engineering single seater special originally built by Doug Serrurier. He was employed by Lawson Motors in Johannesburg which was running a team of Volvo PV544 saloons. In 1960 Bruce shared one of these Volvos to fourth place in the grandly titled ‘4th South African six hour production and Sports Car Endurance Test’ at the Roy Hesketh circuit but had to retire from the Kyalami nine hours. For 1961 the new FIA Formula 1 catered for cars with 1500 cc engines which had become increasingly popular in South Africa as the international Formula 2. Bruce replaced the Speedy Special with the Alfa Romeo-engined Cooper T43 with which Syd van der Vyver had won the 1960 South African Drivers’ Championship and now enabled Bruce to emerge as one of his country’s most promising talents. As such he was given the opportunity by Reg Parnell to drive one of the Yeoman Credit Cooper T51s at the very end of 1960 in the non championship South African Grand Prix in which he finished sixth having taken taking fourth place ten days earlier at the new Killarney circuit in the Cape Grand Prix behind such luminaries as Stirling Moss and Joakim Bonnier in Porsche 718s and ‘Taffy’ von Trips in a Scuderia Colonia Lotus Type 18. With his own Cooper T43 Bruce won the Pat Fairfield Trophy at Roy Hesketh and the Mozambique Grand Prix at Lourenco

Dr Ian Grant-Whyte passed away peacefully in his Scottsdale residence on 24 August. Ian was born in Durban, Natal, South Africa, in 1930. He attended Michaelhouse, a prestigious boys’ boarding school, and became President of the school Debating Society. At 19, he was accepted at Cambridge University Medical School. Ian left England in 1955 and went on to practice as a family doctor on the west island of Montreal. Per Ardua ad Astra, combined with humanism paved the way for wonderful future practices. He enjoyed Montreal and its incredible environs, but in 1978 decided to leave for Phoenix, Arizona as a French(Quebec Separatist) Revolution was unfolding. In Arizona, he started practice from scratch at the age of 48 and built up a wonderful family practice. The same year he joined the Maricopa County Medical Society. He taught part-time at the Phoenix Baptist Family Practice Unit, the “Art of Medicine.”Urging his residents always to apologize for keeping the patient waiting, wash their hands “before” conducting a physical examination, and attentively listen to what the patient was saying, without interruptions.

RIP Good Doctor.
