My condolences on the passing of Garth
I remember him as a very active and polite gentleman from my days growing up in Dipton and later when I played against him at the Te Anau bridge tournaments.
Thinking of you at this time.

So sorry to learn of Garth’s passing. Please accept our condolences. Garth was truely respected for his sincerity and as a sound thinking man.. A good number of years have passed since I last saw him. In that time grand children and even a great grand child have come along. I am sure family played a big part in his life and that he contributed to theirs. Adrianne and Chris are well remembered by me. Kind regards to you both.
Ken and Jeanette Elliott, Akaroa
