Professor Geoffrey Trimble
17 November 1923 – 18 October 2016
He was a highly valued member of Loughborough University staff who worked alongside another colleague to set up the European Construction Industry.
In 1972 he was the founder and first President of project management which is said to become a Royal Chartered body and now has 22,500 members worldwide.
Wife Jean said that he was very proud of his work at the University and was a Court Member for as long as his health would allow – but always kept in contact with the University.
