My sincere sympathy to Jean and family in your sad loss of Noel. He will be greatly missed by people around the country. I recall Noel gave the best part of his life to the dairy industry especially the setting up of the cheese factory at Whareroa just on 50 years ago to become one of the largest cheese factories in the world. Rest in peace Noel, from a life full of achievement. Morris Roberts
