Mr Ologbose's family have now paid tribute and described him as "one in a million".
They said: "Our beautiful dad, Paul, passed away surrounded by his four children, brother and family on the 23rd January. He was taken from us too soon, and in the worst way possible, which as a family we will never get our heads around.
"Our dad was a family man who loved all his children and grandchildren very much, and made a big impact on so many people's lives. Everybody loved him for who he was, a loving caring person who would help anyone in need.
"Our dad was the go to person for anything to do with engines, he could fix anything. He loved his job, with window cleaning meaning everything to him.
"Our dad had his business for 31 years and loved every single day of it. He would make time for all his customers, even if it was because he seen a car he liked in their garden, or to ask for a brew with three sugars.
"Our dad was one in a million. We hope you are dancing away to your Bob Marley music and wearing your Bob Marley Hat which you never took off. Your two grandchildren love you so much.
"Rest easy Dad and Grandad Bushy, we all love and miss you so much."
