I'm afraid it's too late for the funeral or the memorial gathering at Pogo's but nonetheless heres a small mention of our friend and comrade who deserves to be remembered;

Remember Gary Batchelor
Those of us on this list who have been around for a long time will remember Gary, a stalwart of activism in the 1980s. Unfortunately Gary died on 29 June 2005.
Originally from Horsham, Gary lived in London for most of the decade and was involved in animal rights, anti-nuclear and green campaigning. He was one of the instigators of the anti-McDonald's campaign launched by London Greenpeace in 1985 that later grew into McLibel.
Gary's funeral will take place on Thursday 7 July at Grantham Crematorium, Harrowby Road, Grantham NG31 9DT, at 1.15pm.
Some of Gary's friends are organising two events to remember him and his beliefs. The regular McDonald's demo at the Leicester Square branch in central London from 5.45-7.30pm on Thursday 21 July will be a Memorial Demo for Gary, as this was a struggle that he cared passionately about.
On Friday 22 July there will be a special get-together for activist friends and comrades of Gary to remember him and his beliefs at Pogo Cafe, 76 Clarence Road, Hackney, London E5 8HB, from 7pm onwards. Pogos is a vegan workers cooperative. Details: www.pogocafe.co.uk
If the numbers are sufficiently large it may be possible to have the event as a private party, so please email me privately OFF LIST if you are intending to be there.
