Roderick MCKENZIE

Dear Jan and family, I was deeply saddened to hear of Roddy's passing earlier this week. I have fond memories of his phone calls and the occasions I got to meet him in person. His passion and warmth always shone through in any discussion. His willingness to be an interview subject gave me a beautiful piece to write and it was a privilege. I desperately wanted to come to the funeral but unfortunately I had an important business meeting in Wellington which could not be rescheduled. Both Rebecca...

Thoughts and sympathy to all of the family at this time. Never a dull moment when Roddy was around. Great entertainment on Many a Southdown tour and the Southdown world has lost another good breeder - always sound advice.
Great send off for Roddy today and great stories told.
Good memories

Jo and Don, and all your family, our most sincere sympathy . Jean and Hugh McKinstry, Rangitikei, North Island ( Kaz' Mum and Dad).

A sad loss to the family. Roddey was a great character on our many Southdown breeders tours, a great man and a 'Big Kid'! Always remembered. Stuart Brannigan
