Not sure what to say?

5 Jan 2025. So sorry to hear of my cousin and childhood pal's passing. I lived with Michael's family for a school term while my mother was in a Chch sanatorium recovering from TB. We were the same age - he was the go getter and I tagged along into all sorts of trouble and fun. We lost touch after I moved to Dunedin way back, until we returned to NZ in 2022 and caught up with Spike, Noleen and Peter Apr 2023. Haere ra.

To Noleen and family, Pauline, Peter, Margaret, Betty and families. I was saddened to hear of Michael's passing. He was the 'fun cousin' when I was growing up in Dunedin. My sisters and I loved when he came to stay, he was always teasing and joking with us. We loved that attention and thought he was so cool. RIP Michael.

Sincere condolences to family on Mike's passing .Ray and Kathy Easton.

Our sympathy to family, Doug said he was the best bowling partner he ever had.
