Tom Keeley married dietician Belinda.
He did his National Service with the RAF before joining Christ’s Hospital School in West Sussex, where he taught chemistry and biology and met Nancy, who was a nurse. She predeceased him.
Looks like there were quite a few. I thought that "Beaky" Davies was one of them so I looked at the current obits on CHOBA & sure enough there he was. I was in one of his chemistry classes when he first came to CH. His lab was upstairs in the old science block next to Matthews'. Davies, Fryer & T K Vivian were the three prominent Rugby playing members of staff in those days.
