Im going to miss you my dear old friend, we had many great times sailing , fishing and exploring. My snooker partner. We all spend many a day sailing around Kawau that would eventually lead me to living and working for DoC on Kawau and other islands, looking after Kiwi. Im missing you buddy , you are now with Czar sailing on Prodigy. Good bye buddy.

Michael
"Home is the sailor, home from the sea."
A saying you use to say to me when you were a Shipping Manager in Auckland.

Sharing with me the chain link medal was precious and I hope you displayed it so you enjoyed it.

Your scones that you baked were the best with all the toppings that a good English scone should have!! Plus a good proper English Breakfast Tea with the sea vista view and splendid gardens. What more would you want. Fabulous place Michael!!

I hope you get to open that Deli one day that you wanted.

Rest In Peace
Until we meet again

Rest peacefully Michael. It has been a pleasure to know you as a friend across your many years at Rainbows End and thank you for passing on your trout fishing passion and your love of the Tongariro River and the Duchess Pool
