Death date[edit]

According to this The Australian article, Templeton died on Monday evening (April 8):

Though there are other sources that also states that he died the same day.

Was thinking about changing the death date but would need a consensus first. Avatar5991 (talk) 07:48, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Suspect The Oz may have got it wrong. The Victorian News Corp press were clear on Tuesday afternoon: (Herald-Sun, 11 April 2024 p5 "Nathan was so loved")

"Tributes have flowed for popular Channel 7 reporter Nathan ­Templeton who was found dead in a Geelong park. The 44-year-old father of two was found unresponsive near the Barwon River after suffering a medical episode while walking his dog on Tuesday afternoon."

From what I can gather the death notices in the classifieds are going with 9 April 2024. I'm attempting to source a physical copy of the notice to confirm.
Colleagues at 3AW Melbourne had this notice published (which also corroborates date of birth) My Tributes link Storm machine (talk) 06:59, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
