Don, a wonderful man - kind, generous, funny and a great friend to the late Carrick Brown of Epsom Auckland/Gisborne and the Masonic Lodge brethren. We will miss your visits Don and big breakfasts after a heavy weekend in Gizzie at the installations!
A long life, lived to the full. Farewell Don.
"May the road rise to meet you; May the wind be always at your back; May the sunshine be warm upon your face; May the rains fall softly upon your fields. xx Condolences to the extended Tilsley family. Love Thea and The Brown/Botting whanau
