Obituary - Mr Terry Michael O'Doherty - 1/7/56 to 23/7/09

It is with great sadness that we wish to announce the death of one of our Company Directors, Mr Terry Michael O'Doherty, from a suspected heart failure. Terry, who ran our workshop and warehouse operations, was just 53 years of age and will be greatly missed by his family, friends and colleagues.

For anyone who'd like to leave more than kind words, you can leave a donation to Terry's favourite charity, the Great Ormond Street Hospital

I didn't know Terry Michael very well but whenever I was at Chapway and he came to visit he always had a friendly "Hello how are you" A lovely man and good for a joke. Pulled his leg many a time as i called him Michael for years not knowing i was wrong!! I guess the joke was on me

Also was very kind to loan props from Bugsy Malone for our girls school play!
