Tributes

Our deepest sympathy goes out to all the Fowler Family. Derm was a great guy & had a great sense of humour. Quiet often I would go down to Pam & Derns place at Alton with my Sister & Brother in Law Vera & Neal Fowler we had lots of laughs. Will always remember the day we had to stop off at the pub on the way to visit as Pam said Derm will never forgive you if you don’t call & seem him as you pass. We ended up staying for dinner that night so got to catch up twice. RIP Derm

Sharon Preece & Family

Thinking of you Bruce and Sarndra at this time. Many fun memories of Derm. My most special was at our wedding in Rotorua and at the end of a street was a small farm. Derm caught a pig and brought it into our house. My mum Molly Sale could not believe it. Lots of fun and laughter. Rest in peace Derm
