Tributes

Dear Brian, thank you for being my brother. You always went out of your way to help me. I will always remember you taking the caravan to Tuatapere for me and you taking me in the boat up Middle Fiord at Lake Te Anau as well as many other great occasions. You had a colorful and varied life, full of friends, good times and cheer, which you well deserved. You be missed and remembered by many for a long time. Rest in peace my dear brother.
