“Andrew lived in one of the oldest floating houses on the river Thames, he was fiercely independent, but he loved his wife, who is also a dialect teacher,” Makalova said.
“Andrew Jack was diagnosed with a coronavirus two days ago. He did not suffer from the pain and left calmly, knowing that his entire family was ‘with’ him,” his wife, Gabriel Rogers, who is being quarantined in Australia, wrote on social media.
