Passing of 3TB Padre – Lex Levy

All,

We have received an email from Paul Rees (3/68) about the sudden death of Lex Levy who was the RC Padre at 3TB from 1969 for a period unknown to him.

“3TB was Lex’s initial posting so he was a “babe in the woods” with both Army and Mess life.   I suppose like most RC Padres he was known as “Dad”. Lex had retired from active church duties and lived in a retirement villa in Morpeth in the Hunter Valley.   He was found dead in his bed on Saturday morning and is presumed to have had a stroke sometime during the previous night.   As a significant cohort of OTU’ers would have had contact with Lex I thought you may like to be aware.  Regards   Paul Rees”
