Shane - thank you for all your support and assistance to the Taranaki Jazz Club. We are going to miss you immensely. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything." Rest easy.

Rest in peace Shane . You played "the game of life " so well.

Shane was a friend and legal adviser to me for over forty years, he was a trusted sounding board for my ideas and enthusiastic supporter of my career. I will miss that access to an intellectual conversation and alternative world view. A loyal friend lost to soon.

Very sad to hear Shane has passed. Glad to have had a catchup up with Shane a few weeks back to have the chance to thank him for being a special friend/boss many years back. Too much to write, but condolences to his family. He will be sadly missed on the slopes, his daily bike rides, and so much more.

Heart felt condolences to all family and friends we will miss you very much in the band Julie
