Joe Ullman (W59)
One of the best known and universally loved OCs passed away in February 2022.
“As Head of Weekites, and latterly as President of the Old Weekite Association, Joe was a huge supporter of the House throughout his life. He was actively involved with the running of the Old Weekites Association and we appreciated his inspiring leadership and thoughtful guidance on Association matters. Old Weekites always loved hearing his stories about life at the School back in his day at countless drinks and dinner events over the years. No one cared more about Charterhouse than Joe. We will always remember him.”
Alex Campbell (W93) Chairman of the Old Weekites Association “Joe was in Weekites from 1954 to 1959. He was in the School Cricket 1st XI for his last three years, captaining in 1959, and in that year he also led Weekites in the unique House Match Final, spanning 14 days, when both he and Eddie Craig (R60) scored double centuries and took five wickets. He was also a more than useful footballer and fives player.
On leaving Charterhouse, he immediately got immersed in the OC Club as Secretary, and later he was an extremely active President of the Club, being, inter alia, integrally involved in the establishment of a full time Alumni Office within the School. He was also for many years President of the Charterhouse Friars.
Joe had a unique ability to make friends wherever he went and together with his wife, Chris, he ran a very popular pub in Buckinghamshire. Despite health problems in recent years, he was still a very regular presence at Arthur Dunn and Cricketer Cup matches.
There can be very few people who have contributed more to the Old Carthusian community, or been a better ambassador for it, than Joe.”
