We were so sad to hear of Snows death and our Deepest Sympathy to you all. My memories of Snow go back to the Baylis home when I would visit with Audrey.Our friendship with Robyn was also another connection with Snow. Rest easy Snow and go with love
Snow and I were pals when we first started work in Opunake in the 60's. Lots of fun times and memories. He was our Best Man at our wedding and we attended his wedding to Robyn. We moved from Taranaki when we married and did not keep in contact. Our condolences to the family. Alan and Lynne Norgate
Snow was a great mate of mine when I was a kid growing up in Opunake, later he was a groomsman at our wedding. We moved to Auckland and Snow moved up as well and lived with his brother Walter, we spent a lot of time together over the 2 years he was there. I lost touch with him until I contacted him in Pungarehu around 2007 and we had a night with him at the Rahotu Tavern. Max and Julie Nummy. RIP Snow.
