David, Enid and all our family are deeply moved and very sorry to learn of Oliver’s passing.
All of us worked very closely with Oliver over a period of 25 years from the mid 1970’s and over those years we came to know him as a very dear friend.
We always enjoyed Oliver’s company for his wonderful wit and light hearted approach, which was guaranteed to ease even the most serious discussions and made life so much more pleasurable for all concerned.
Loyal, generous and caring as a family man, with a great sense of humour second to none. Oliver brought a unique and always constructive perspective to life which will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
Our hearts go out to all of Oliver’s family at this time.
With all our love,
David, Enid, Hazel, Gillian & Eric
