Service for Ian Cannell at Peel Methodist church
The funeral of a true Manxman will be held in Peel this afternoon (Wednesday).
Ian Cannell, who passed away earlier this month at the age of 83, was the official Tynwald Day commentator for more than half a century, the first official TT commentator for Manx Radio, where he also had a spell as general manager.
He was a former Peel town clerk and, perhaps most notably of all, a key and respected figure in the Royal British Legion both on and off the Island.
President of Tynwald Steve Rodan says he will be remembered for playing an invaluable part in Island life.
The funeral of Ian Cannell will be held at Peel Methodist Church at two o’clock.
