You may no longer be with us in an earthly sense Mark however you will live on in our memories forever. There are truly very few people that are true friends in one´s life however you were one of them. You were a great friend and will be sadly missed. Whilst we can´t be there on Friday we will be raising a glass in celebration of your life.

Shocked and saddened to learn that an old friend and classmate from my early years in Kohimarama has passed on.
Mark was the one who introduced me to boats, yachting and the sea, which to a six year old coming from Palmerston North was a totally new concept!
I remember him as a champion yachtsman and an achiever who loved the sea and all that pertained to it.
Time has passed, but many happy memories still remain.
My condolences to Karen and the family on the loss of a dearly loved father, grandfather and my old friend.
Fair weather and following winds!
Scott.
