Fly high Steve. You are gone but will never be forgotten. Love from your “E” 💙

Sorry I couldn’t make it today mate, we’ve had some good times over the years doing renovations and various car projects you’ve helped me with, you will be missed deeply Lionel, Anju and Ayana Rest well mate

Our deepest sympathies to Libby, Shona, Gabriel and your best friend Jax who is still waiting for you to come home. Our thoughts are with your family today and the years ahead. We will miss you, our good friend your cheeky grin, wicked sense of humor and winding Trevor up. I think i will miss that the most. Gone, but never forgotten. Your good friends Rachael, Trevor, Curtis & Holly

Sorry that I can't be there to see you off buddy. Thanks for taking to the time to be my mate, something I'll always treasure. If only you really knew how much you meant to the people around you. Maybe you've found the peace you desired. Farewell my friend.

Love and condolences to Steve's friends and family. Steve was our friend and devoted DOCNZ member. Longstanding members have many fond memories of Steve. Although he hasn’t been riding lately, his love for all things Ducati remained strong. I first met Steve at my first national Ducati rally in 2019, where he shared his chips with me! When riding together a few times, he’d always leave us in the dust but still made sure a seat was saved at the café when we stopped. He loved talking about his bike adventures, and I'll never forget the story he told of going camping, strapping his tent to his beloved 1299! You’ll be missed, Steve! Rest in peace, Steve and ride high! From all your mates at DOCNZ!

Hi Steve, that ride that had quite a few bumps and slippery bits is now over. Its now time for a good rest. Thank you for sharing some of that ride with me, Steve Melrose
