Lofty..
We met on the railways in the late 70s when you were the Lead Fitter at ‘Plant Zone’ in Aramoho’, and repaired our pro lines and jiggers. On the day we met, you treated me with care and respect and you have done ever since - thank you!. You leave behind great memories for us all Lofty. My thoughts are with your family at this sad time.

Hi Bev, Justine, Michael, Lisa and Whanau. Hard to think, Wally, my biggest strongest Uncle has gone, he will always live on as a giant in my memory. I'm sorry I can't make it to the service, but I will be thinking of you all. As for you Wally, well the Franklin Browne parties have lost one of their leading vocalists, we will miss you.
