Words are totally inadequate but I am unable to be at the funeral today. I am so sorry that we now mark Tony's passing. I worked with Tony for many years in the Maths Department at NPBHS. He was a magnificent colleague with a great warmth and humanity...also a terrific sense of humour. He made working alongside him a real pleasure. My love and prayers are with you and the family now Jen as you farewell one of the best. Arohanui
