Wake:

There was no funeral service. Instead, Oliver's wife Sue, his son Wayne and Grandson Harvey held a wake on Friday March-11 at Hatfield Place Orangery, at Hatfield Peverel, CM3 2ET.

The eulogy covered his very varied life over his career (~30 jobs), as well as a sky diving parachutist (100s of descents).
