Our sincere sympathy to you and your family Barbara
We are thinking of you, Barbara, Richard,Megan, David and Kate and families as you farewell Bob. We have many fond memories of enjoying time with you all over the years and remember Bob as a gentleman willing to share his farming knowledge in his quiet way. Graham remembers fun days fishing at Taupo in their younger days. Unfortunately we are unable to attend Bobs funeral as we are travelling in the South Island at present. Fond memories Graham and Meridee
