To Kerry and siblings, words cannot express how sorry i was to hear of beanies passing, a true gentleman and absolute one of kind who would do anything for anyone, anytime. Awesome memories from the Oberon street days, footy, the rugby club, parties and general shinanigans. Had the pleasure of catching up with Clint here in the Gold Coast - just that rare fantastic bloke that will be sorely missed by everyone. Taken way too soon - The world just lost a great man!.

I’ll never forget the fun we had “hydro- sausage” starting with our dairy diploma days, from dinners out, playing rugby games for Hamilton Old Boys Presidents team together and getting nude in the Waikato river after a few beers.

The pilgrimage we undertook from Hamilton down to Wellington in 2015 to watch the mighty Highlanders win their maiden Super Rugby title at the cake tin is a core memory of our time together.

I’ve always looked forward to seeing you at work events since and reminiscing but those times.

Rest easy my friend,
Arohanui,
Gidz.

Hey my old mate. Won’t ever forget our time together through dairy diploma in Hamilton. From late night at Shenanigans, to playing for Hamilton Old Boys Presidents team, and late night nuddy runs in the Waikato river after a few beers I’ve always looked forward to catching up over a beer at work functions and reminiscing.

A core memory from that time is the 7 hour drive one way from Hamilton to Wellington to watch the mighty Highlanders win their maiden Super Rugby title in 2015, how good!

You were and are one of the good ones mate. Always remember the hydo-sausage debacle that never stopped giving.

Rest easy mate, arohanui.

Gids.
