I wish to inform the members that Peter Whisson of Berkeley Vale Formerly of Cable & Wireless and OTC has passed on last night 17\/05\/2015. He is survived by his wife Elva, his 4 children, 10 grandchildren and 1 great grand child and his dog, Toby.<\/p>\n

Peter spoke to me fondly of his time with C&W\/OTC island hopping in the Pacific in places like Guam, Fiji, Papua New Guinea. Ultimately settling into a management position in the head office in Sydney.<\/p>\n

His subsequent retirement led him to the peace and quiet of the Central Coast.<\/p>\n

Peter was cremated on Wednesday 20th May 2015. A Memorial Service for Peter was held at 11:30am on Friday 22 May 2015 at Palmdale Crematorium (Ourimbah).<\/p>\n

I’m his eldest daughter Julie’s other half. Peter and I shared that “Technician” connection, I’m an electronics technian\/designer. I’m not directly involved with the arrangements, however I was concerned that his passing may be missed by people whom may want to pay their respects.<\/p>\n

I appreciate that many of his contemporaries have already gone, Pete told me so a little while ago. Pete was a thorough gentleman and I certainly enjoyed his company. He will be sorely missed by one and all.<\/p>\n

The photos are of Peter with his great grand daughter Aurora at his last birthday in March, One of Pete’s mugshots, and one with some of his grandchildren.<\/p>\n
