A very special tribute to Stephen Dunn
I would like to pay a very special tribute to Stephen Dunn who has sadly passed away. Stephen was a Hibs fanatic and Director of the club. On our very first meeting Stephen’s love for The Hibs shone through and in particular his passion for ‘The Famous Five’ to which he commissioned me to create in bronze. His knowledge of each of the players was phenomenal and his input along the way helped to capture the essence of each of the players within the portrait. Stephen was amazing to work with over the last 12 months and enjoyed seeing the progress of the commission. I am incredibly saddened that he did not get to see the commission completed in bronze. I know from our first meeting how important it was to him to have these players commemorated. It appears that a lot of what Stephen achieved was done from behind the scenes therefore I sincerely hope that Stephen’s legacy continues through the ‘Famous Five’ sculptures soon to be at the club.
With gratitude, love and warmest thoughts to his family. R.I.P. Stephen.
