Carly, I first remember meeting you and your dad while practicing for the Dragon Boat races - team Northland. You and Adrienne became best friends and although I did not spend much time with your dad I only ever heard Adrienne speak highly of him. The speech he gave at your wedding was so touching, you were the apple of his eye and he would have done anything for you. I´m sure you will feel his love every day in some small reminder.
