John Berylson, an American businessman and principal owner of the English soccer team Millwall, died July 4 at age 70.
The cause of the car crash is still under investigation, per Falmouth police, whose statement noted that Berylson’s Range Rover appeared to have lost control on a curve and rolled over into a ravine.
“I feel so desperately sad for John’s family,” Millwall CEO Steve Kavanagh said Wednesday in a statement, “and our thoughts and prayers are with them at what is just such a devastatingly cruel time.” Kavanagh added that Berylson was undoubtedly “the best club owner I have ever worked with, and I would argue strongly that he was the best chairman of any club in this country.”
The founder of a Wellesley-based private-equity firm, Berylson became involved with Millwall in 2006. He took a controlling stake in the East London club the following year and, under his guidance, the Lions eventually earned a long-awaited promotion from the third-tier League One. They were relegated again in 2015 but returned to the Championship two years later.
Berylson “really did love the club,” team captain Shaun Hutchinson said in a video shared by Millwall on Wednesday. “He had so much time for every single person, whether it be fans or the players, and shook everyone’s hand. … He really was just an incredible guy, and the outpouring of love that we’ve seen on social media does it justice.”
