176 OBITUARIES of the group in his youth.Taking his enthusiasm for and expertise in music to the post, Andrew successfully raised the profile of the orchestra. He is remembered for his great sense of fun and good humour. Andrew suffered a long illness and at the time of his death in October 2004 was awaiting a liver transplant at Birmingham Hospital. His funeral was so well attended that many mourners had to listen to the service outside the church on the pavement.Two of his sisters, Patricia and Doreen, subsequently organised the Andrew O’Neill Cabaret Awards in his memory, the final of which took place in Porthcawl in April 2007. PETER BASIL ONGLEY (1939) was born in 1919 in Marlow. John Farquharson (1939) knew Peter at primary school and remembers that from the age of about 10 or 11 Peter wanted to be the Head of London Buses, an ambition that he eventually realised. Peter attended Charterhouse before coming to King’s, where he read Classics.The war intervened and after serving as a Captain in the Royal Artillery, Peter returned to King’s to read History and complete his studies. He then embarked on his career with LondonTransport, mostly working in the capital, but also spending periods as a consultant in both Venezuela and Mexico. In 1950 Peter married Doreen Laing, and for many years they lived in the country, near Woking. He is remembered as a loyal Kingsman and a devout worshipper who was an enthusiastic supporter of the Chapel. He died in August 1997. JOHN EDWARD LEADER ORPEN (1926) was born in Thurston, Suffolk, on 2 March 1908. After Repton he came up to King’s to read History and later qualified as a solicitor. For many years he was Senior Partner at Fitzhugh Eggar and Port and chaired the Royal Insurance Co Board in Brighton. John became a JP in 1950 and in 1963 was President of the Sussex Law Society. He was Chairman of the Brighton and Hove Regency Society for a number of years in the 1970s, and during the 1980s was involved in the Charleston Trust, which
was formed to save and restore the home of members of the Bloomsbury Group. He also served on numerous other local committees. In 1948 John married Marianne Lundberg-Gertz and the couple enjoyed a long and happy marriage. John considered that he had lived a very happy life and was always grateful for his three years at King’s and for the friends he made there. He died on 14 June 2003, survived by Marianne and their sons John and Peter. HUMPHREY WALTER OSMOND (1945) was a schoolmaster who taught Modern Languages and spent 22 years teaching at Dean Close School in Cheltenham. He was born in London on 28 December 1927, and came up to King’s from Aldenham to read Modern Languages, studying French and German, and was awarded the Arthur Tilley Prize for French in 1946. After graduation Humphrey began his teaching career at Solihull School, but moved on after a year to the King’s School in Canterbury. His stay there was somewhat longer (16 years), and in addition to his teaching duties Humphrey also served as a Housemaster. In September 1965 Humphrey took up his final teaching appointment at Dean Close School. In addition to a further period as a Housemaster he was also, at various times, President of the Common Room and the Universities Adviser. After retiring in 1987 Humphrey stayed on at the school as a parttime archivist, a role he performed until 2002. His Christian faith was important to Humphrey. He became a Lay Reader in 1976 and later served as Honorary Secretary to the Gloucester Diocesan Evangelical Fellowship. Humphrey died on 26 June 2006. JOHN BRANGWYN PAGE (1941), the last Chief Cashier of the Bank of England, died at the age of 81 after a long struggle against ill health. He was 177 OBITUARIES
