A wonderful person who will be greatly missed. Always saw the good in people, and that kind, caring nature was infectious. A role model to so many. Gone but never forgotten, always in my heart ❤️

Arohanui to the whole family. We will miss the catch-ups and reminiscing about the old days. Never a grumpy word or a raised voice, and always time for a chat and a good laugh. Sending big hugs to you all xx

So many happy memories have come flooding back this week. My first coach, and a mentor and friend who was always up for a friendly chat. So grateful to have been part of it all. Rest easy.

A life well lived. I loved the Sunday dinners over the years, and the endless pots of tea afterwards....that still makes me smile x The hard-fought battle is over, but that legacy of selflessness will remain forever.

Condolences to all the family.

So sorry to read the news. Such quiet strength, wry humour and enormous integrity, and someone who taught me so much, about the game and about life. My thoughts are with you all and your extended family. Lots of love to you and the whānau xxx
