BARRETT, Nigel Dean.

Loved husband and best friend of Janelle, loved father and father-in-law of Jack, Baylee and Liam. Loved brother and brother-in-law of Maxine and Bruce; Jocelyn and Chris, Frank and Bronwyn and Sharon and Neil. Loved son of Dawn and the late Ken. Cherished nephew, uncle, cousin and valued friend to many. A service to celebrate Nige's life will be held in the Lumsden Memorial Hall on Friday 15th September at 1pm, private cremation to follow.

He was so much to so many.

Our condolences to Nigel's family for his passing. It was a privilege and a pleasure to be associated with Nigel over a ten year period mining in both NZ and South America. As someone else has already said, he was a gentle giant with a heart of gold. He was a solid, reliable, sound workmate. Will miss the long chats over a beer when work is done, Nige.

Condolences to Nigel’s family, this news has been such a shock . Nigel was a bloke you could always rely on no matter the situation. It was a pleasure to have worked with him for a number of years both in New Zealand and Chile / Bolivia .
