Hey my mate, no words can say what I feel right now, still wish I had pushed the call button so many times, so you would know you weren't alone. Let your mind rest now Battman, and thanks for pulling me out of the river when Steven pushed me in, remember all I was worried about were my new sneakers lol. Thanks for all the times fishing and eeling with Steven and I, you will always be missed, remembered and loved by many. See you on the other side mate. Love ya

A hundred people are saying to themselves 'if only' about now... I am one of those people. You had a huge heart and would do anything for anyone to help out. Fishing, tying flies, Port Royal, 'vege' gardening and family. Some of the best memories of my life were spent with you and your family. Thank you. I hope you have peace now xx Give Russ and Jackie a big hug from me xx
Alanna, Masterton
Geoff,

What can I say man. Not a day has or will go by where you wernt loved, thought of or spoken about. So many people were there in your corner cheering you on from the sidelines i just wish you'd won the fight to see it. You were meant to be here to laugh with me, rip on about all the ailments of getting old and eventually joke about the covert. Who will knock on my door now (other then the courier you were the only one lol). Thank you for the time I got with you. Thank you for the memories we made and thank you for your beautiful kiddies. I'll continue to look out for them, maybe boss them round when needed and remind them and your beautiful grandaughter just how much you loved them
