Really sad we were not able to attend the service for our mate, friend, and rugby brother. Marie, it was so good to see yourself and Butch just a few weeks back in Wellington after the Hurricanes and Lions game, we will cherish that catch up along with the many memories of Butch and yourself. It is amazing how life works, I remember introducing you two and time has passed so quickly, if we were not on the other side of the world we would not have missed Butch's send off. Ironically we are with some of your best friends as well Matt King and Lou Curtis, we are having a special dinner here in Vietnam for Butch and the family and will raise a glass of red to you all. A great guy, talented and tough rugby player and most importantly a loving man.Love and care Kevin and Cam Wooster.

Hugest condolences to the Renton family. Many fond memories of growing up in the 1960's/70's with Paul, Susanna, Juliet and Andy. Memories of hearing the bell rung from the Glenmore verandah when it was time for home. Watching the man land on the moon together!And always getting the hell out of the way from Paul when we played bull rush all together at Mangatahi School. Thinking of you all at this terribly sad time. Fondest Regards to you all. Linda(nee Foreman),Daren Coulston and family.
