" Hi Diane and Family Sorry to hear about Ian's passing. It was a real pleasure in knowing Ian as he was a true gentleman with a lovely smile and a laid back manner about him. He was always doing something up at Mangawhai and really enjoyed being around the grandchildren. No doubt he will missing jumping the fence for a beer or two with the noisy neighbours next door at Mangawhai but we will have a drink for him. Sorry we cannot make the funeral but will be thinking of you all on the day. Lots of Love Ray, Leonie and Daddy Desmond. "
