๐๐ More sad news for our club on the passing of a brilliant clubman and friend to many, Guy Oakley.
Guy passed away peacefully on 1 August 2026 and will be fondly remembered by everyone who knew him.
Guy was devoted to his family and couldnโt have been happier than the day his son Zak joined Barkers and started a successful rugby career. Guy loved watching rugby and being at the club. He would always volunteer to help out and support however he could. He even tiled the ladies toilets, generously donating his time and all the materials.
Guy, Claire, Zak & Poppy enjoyed many special times at the club and would love to invite their friends to join them to celebrate Guyโs life. His funeral service will take place on Thursday 27 August 2026 in Cannon Hill Chapel, Canley Crematorium at 12:45 pm.
Family flowers only please, but donations if desired in Guy's memory to Coventry Myton Hospice on the day via the collection box at the service. Guyโs friends have also started a GoFundMe link if anyone would like to support https://gofund.me/7c5f90132 ๐๐
