Read MoreSo sad to hear about Ian. I last saw him at his sister Mary (my best friend)´s funeral 7 years ago.

With all our love.

So sorry to hear of Ian's passing. I knew him when he was Lands and Survey Department's Commissioner of Crown Lands in Blenheim. More recently played many a social tennis game in the evenings. To Karen and family our deepest sympathy.
