I MUST publicly express my genuine sadness at the news that Bill Tanner, your reporter of 27 years’ experience, has moved on.
Others have come and gone but Bill stayed in the county and on the Hereford Times, doing the job he loved and cared about in a meticulous, unbiased and conscientious manner.
His capacity to get to the nub of any story and his relentless pursuit of the facts never overshadowed his charm and professional courtesy.
I fear the shadowy edges of society will grow deeper in our county without Bill Tanner and his torch.
