So sorry to hear of Graeme's passing Chris. Very sad.
We had a Burma Line Jaycee get together a couple of months back & the contribution Graeme made to our rebranding and focus was highlighted by many.
Best to you and family

Graeme made a major contribution to the Otaki Museum. While many outside a small circle may not know what it was, as Chair of Otaki Heritage, I can say it was an important legacy. He introduced us to an approach to designing exhibitions which is engaging and vibrant, and still used today by those of us who were exposed to and became committed to Graeme's approach.
We don't define our legacy others do, and as an 'other' I consider Graeme's legacy to the Otaki Museum is a substantial one. We are very fortunate that his path and ours intersected, briefly but importantly for us.

It´s sad to learn of Graeme´s passing. Our condolences to Chris and the family. We enjoyed talking to Graeme (alias Wicket) about things entrepreneurial, and fun things done mixed in with some politics. The rooster trips with him were fun. He will be missed. We are very sorry for your loss. Rob Archibald and Lynn Dalton
