Beloved father of Louise, John and David, treasured father- in-law of Kim and Sorina, grandpa of Tait, Max and Andrew. Former husband of Jeannette.

My love and thoughts are with you all at this sad time. So many memories of a wonderful boss, his wicked sense of humour as well as his deep compassion for his patients. Our lovely days at the beach with you as little children. Love, Jenny.
