From Fr. James:
As many of you will know by now, our dear friend
Oliver Foreman sadly died on Sunday morning.
Oliver was a familiar and much-loved member of St Mark's for many
years and had a particular concern for youth work; certainly, his
work with the Sunday Youth Service so regularly throughout the year
and at Christmas will live long in people's memories. He also
oversaw much of the publicity material for our church for many years,
including typing and printing liturgies for our services. Until increased
problems with mobility made this more difficult, Oliver was a faithful worshipper at St Mark's
not only on Sundays but also arranging and leading Evening Prayer on Monday evenings,
where a small group would gather together to praise God through readings, prayers and
psalms.
The details of Oliver's funeral service have yet to be arranged, but it will take place at St
Mark's and will be conducted by Oliver's brother, Fr. Tim Foreman.
Our love, thoughts, and prayers are with David, Tammy and Katrine at this sad time.
Rest in peace, Oliver, we shall miss you very much.
