If there is an obituary it is more likely to be online nowadays, have you checked local newspapers or undertakers websites in the area he died.

As he was living in Leiston I'm wondering if he was working on the construction of Sizewell nuclear power station, the first of which - Sizewell A -  was commenced in the 1960s.  I know a lot of people were attracted to the area at that time because of the variety of jobs available.
