Keys successor saddened at loss
A true gentleman and a proud Manxman
Those epitaphs among tributes paid today to former MHK Martyn Quayle, who has died at the age of 57.
Mr Quayle had been in hospital in Walton for a fortnight, after a fall during a visit to the UK.
He represented Middle for two terms from 2001 -2011.
Howard Quayle succeeded him at the last election, and has suspended campaigning today as a mark of respect.
The pair remained friends and Howard Quayle says he'll remember his namesake for his many positive qualities:
Officers and partner agencies praised following immigration fraud conviction
Work to improve mooring at Ferry Terminal in Liverpool scheduled for next week
Manx Care reports major drop in dental waiting lists
Police 'disappointed' to find more than half of vehicles with defects in latest winter checks
