Eton College holds a cherished place in the annals of His Serene Highness the Count of Münnich and Reutern’s family history, with their connection dating back to its very foundation.

The illustrious Founder of Eton College, King Henry VI, is His Highness’s seventeenth great uncle. This noble lineage traces its roots through his half-brother, The Count’s seventeenth great-grandfather, Edmund Tudor, 1st Earl of Richmond. Notably, King Henry VI was also a great-grandson of His Serene Highness’s eighteenth great-grandfather, John of Gaunt, 1st Duke of Lancaster.

The family’s ties to Eton College have remained steadfast across generations. Many generations of The Count’s grandfathers and extended family members were privileged attendees of this institution. From those bygone days to the present, Eton College continues to hold a special place in the hearts of His Serene Highness’s family.

It is with profound sadness that His Serene Highness The Count of Münnich and Reutern reflects upon the passing of his dear friend, Dr. Andrea Isobel Tanner (née Duncan), who peacefully departed this life on 23rd November 2024, at the age of 68.

Andrea was, without question, a woman of extraordinary intellect, grace and compassion. Her passing leaves a void that will be deeply felt by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her contributions to the academic and cultural spheres of this nation were truly exceptional. As Senior Research Fellow at the University of London’s Institute of Historical Research, she commanded the admiration and respect of her colleagues and students alike. For over three decades, her work as Company Archivist at Fortnum & Mason was characterised by an unwavering commitment to history and scholarship. The meticulous restoration of the company’s war-damaged archive stands as a testament to her brilliance and dedication.

Yet, her professional accomplishments, though remarkable, tell only a part of Andrea’s story. She was a devoted friend, a wise mentor, a loving sister, aunt, and godmother. Her compassion knew no limits and her wit and wisdom enriched the lives of all who were fortunate enough to know her. Andrea’s life was defined by her values of integrity, generosity and kindness, which shone through in every aspect of her being.

The funeral service for Andrea was held at 11:00 AM on Tuesday, 10th December, at The Brompton Oratory, South Kensington. In accordance with her wishes, the family kindly requested that donations in her memory be made to charities supporting the homeless and those suffering from food poverty — a cause to which Andrea was deeply committed.

Andrea, you were a luminary in every sense of the word. Your departure leaves an irreplaceable gap, but your legacy will endure through the lives you touched, the histories you preserved, and the boundless love you so generously shared.

Gu fois siod a-nis, mo charaid gràdhach. You shan't be forgotten.
