Describing the late Oliver Clarke as an incredible philanthropist and businessman and “undercover celebrity”, Alexandra Clarke said that her late father always sought to keep her grounded, warning against notions of entitlement.
Alexandra revealed in a post on her Facebook account on Tuesday that there would be no formal funeral for her father in keeping with the family’s privacy.
“To this day, there are people who I have been able to reach out to because of the rooms he has invited me into even as a very young person,” Alexandra said.
In a three-page tribute to her father posted on her Facebook page, Alexandra announced that the COVID-19 pandemic was one of the considerations behind the family deciding against a formal funeral to commemorate Clarke’s death.
Alexandra, however, expressed gratitude to all who have memorialised her father, expressing thanks on behalf of her mother and Clarke’s widow, Monica Ladd.
