: Death of Martin Coker : Cookham Webmaster July 20, 2022, 06:46:34 PM A Cookham Parish Council member and key figure in the community has passed away aged 75.
Martin Coker was a parish councillor for 22 years. He was also a Lib Dem canvasser and was involved in a great number of groups, organisations and committees. Martin passed away on July 14 after receiving care at Thames Hospice. Martin had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2014 and fell ill in 2019. The funeral service is on July 30 at 10.30am at St Edmund Campion church. He was school governor of Cookham Rise Primary for around 20 years and was chairman of the Cookham Flood Committee. A train enthusiast, Martin was a member of the Marlow-Maidenhead Passenger Association, which lobbies to improve services and facilities for passengers. He was very much at the heart of Cookham and will be sorely missed. : Re: Death of Martin Coker : RBWM Press Release July 22, 2022, 10:52:38 PM From Martin Coker’s daughter
