To Margaret, Elizabeth and Scott. My sincere condolences to you on the passing of Garey. When visiting you all in Auckland many years ago, I can remember spending the day with Garey at his work-place, the Air New Zealand freight depot. Sorry I'll be unable to make it to his service of remembrance, but I will be thinking of you all during your/our time of bereavement. Love to you all.
