Born  21st December  1949

Sadly passed  8th February  1998 in Afganistan   
 His body was brought to Portsmouth

If you don't get any joy from here is it worth contacting  the admiralty,  so far I can't find anything

Local newspapers?

There is a possibility that could be Haslar Royal Naval Cemetery. Gosport Hants.
Might be worth an enquiry
