The British Limousin Cattle Society said it was with “much sadness” that members were being informed of Ian’s death.

Ian, of the Ballyrickard herd, was a “strong supporter of the Limousin breed,” the society said,

“In particular, he loved sourcing and trying out new and old bloodlines which resulted in multiple show winners, sale leaders and herd competition awards over the years.
