Aubrey Thomas Westlake qualified in Medicine at Cambridge and St Bartholomew's Hospital, and was in general practice in Bermondsey for eighteen years before he moved to the New Forest, where he ran an organic farm and a holiday centre, and served on the Rural District Council, as well as carrying on his rather specialized medical practice. He will be greatly missed by all those friends to whom he was a patient, wise and beloved counsellor. M.H.
