DALGETY, Selwyn James. Passed away on 08 July 2016. Much loved and loving brother in law of Rosemary and David Ryan. Loved Uncle Selly of Brett and Trish, Grant, and Kim. You were our super man, a source of good but usually expendable advice, a very nearly expert. You were our fishing and camping buddy, the teacher of all things farming and our very best friend. We will miss you very much.
