Tributes paid to Green Party Councillor, Diane Hoy.

It is with great sadness that today we today share the news of the passing of Green Party Councillor Diane Hoy.

Diane was a pivotal part of her community in Hullbridge, and she was a beloved mother, wife, and friend. She lost her final battle with Breast Cancer on Friday, September 11th surrounded by loved ones.

She served Hullbridge for over a decade as a committed and passionate Green Party councillor, and she was a friend to everyone.


SEEGP Coordinator James Vessey-Miller said;
“I’m really upset to today learn the news of the sad passing of our friend Diane Hoy. A tremendous loss to Hullbridge, and even sadder to lose not only one of the Green Party’s best people but also a good friend. She will be sadly missed.”

Johnathan Fuller, Coordinator of the S.E.Essex FoE Group added;
“I am so desperately sorry to read this. She was so determined in her service to the community and will be greatly missed by all. And I am terribly sorry for Michael and her family. She was so young – it is very shocking.”


She will be sadly missed, and our condolences, love, and support go to her husband Michael, the family, and all who knew Diane.
