In Memory of
Len A Holman 1933 - 2024
UPP President 1997 -2000
Sadly, Len passed away just days before our UPP 2024 AGM/Convention,
With thanks for details supplied by Paul Damen and Nick Bodle.
I have learnt that Len would have been 91 on 27th September 2024.
He was a Train Driver in Grimsby until he retired, and lived in North East Lincolnshire with his wife Jean.

I understand that Len was an excellent president who had full possession of the role, and he was the ‘Life and Soul’ of UPP, promoting UPP whenever he could, belonging to and Circle secretary of Circle 10 during his Presidency, Circle 11 was very supportive of Len. Circles 10 and 11 held joint rallies in 1998, meeting in Norfolk and 1999, meeting in Stamford. latterly he was a member of Circle 88 (for notable retired UPP members).
Len Holman's funeral will be at Grimsby Crematorium on Thursday 17th October at 2.15pm.
