Don was the Pukekura junior tennis team manger/parent when the team won the junior competition. We cleaned up!. I have some nice memories of the grass court, swimming pool and the fruit trees on Junction Road. We were made welcome by Don and of course your mum. Don was a cool dad. Condolences Bruce, Richard and family. Andy Erb
