You beat me to it, Knowle... I always check the Telegraph obituaries, but it seems that Rex passed away in April. Not sure why it took that long to get on the Telegraph site, but I did notice that there were several obituaries that were posted at the time.

What's really sad is that he had been suffering from Alzheimer's for several years.
