Aubrey BILLS Obituary

BILLS, Aubrey Albert Donald. RNZAF Flt Lt, 1941-45, 1949-53. Passed away 9 December 2020 after a short illness. An incredibly special and irreplaceably unique man. Gifted to our world 99 years ago on 25 November 1921. Loving husband and fiercely loyal mate of Win for 40 wonderful years. Loved and respected dad of Diane and Barry (Christchurch), Neale and Suzanne (Kerikeri), Jan and John (Auckland). Proud Pop to his seven grandchildren and six great grandchildren. Special friend of Linda (UK) and Sharon (USA) and their families. Following Aub's wishes a private cremation has been held and there will be a celebration of a life well lived in January. Aubrey had a mischievous wit and sharp intelligence that never faded, even as he did. Grab that joystick Aub and fly high.

I met Aubrey in his workshop when I was five. He was building a wing and spent time with me explaining what he was doing. I remember it as if it was yesterday. He was a friend of my Dad (Robert Charles Howell Green, or "Lofty")
