Messages

I was so touched when Bob called me some years ago and invited me to his 70th birthday celebrations. It had been more than 50 years since we'd seen each other, but we'd played quite a bit of rugby together, and Bob had especially fond memories of the two of us spending a season or two rowing on the Otago Harbour.
They were special times. He was a fine man. I'll cherish his memory, and the memories of those times.
