After the news of Paul's death began reaching the media and Tubeway Army fans, Beryl Webb released the following statement in issue 13 of The Gary Numan Newsletter, the entire issue of which was dedicated to Paul Gardiner's passing: "Paul was found dead on a park bench near his home in Northolt, Middlesex on the morning of Saturday 18th February, 1984. Both Gary and I were in constant contact with Paul and one of us spoke with him almost every day of the week. He really was like one of our own family and I know that Paul felt the same about us; we were very close. The last telephone conversation that I had with Paul was the day before his death (17 February 1984) when he told me how excited he was at the prospect of working with John on one of John's own composition, the progress that was being made with the tapes that Gary and the band were working on and of course Paul had been working in the studio with Dramatis. Pauls cremation took place on Monday 27th February 1984 at 2.30pm at Breakspear Road Crematorium in Ruislip, 9 days after been found dead. |

The above date of Saturday 18th February 1984 along with the cause of death which was from an overdose of valium |

and dicanol is verified and has been taken from Paul's death certificate. |
