Your hand at sunset
Enfolds our souls delight
Silent bygone visions
Paint dreamscapes
Of You and I
This life we made and shared
Was a story
Where chapters never end
You are still the star
That shines forever
In All of Us

We were shocked to hear that you aren't still with us Dingle. Thank you for being such a fun and supportive mate who opened his home to us while we shared a similar path. Food, a drink, a yarn and a movie or two with you meant never a dull moment. You will always be on our mind and our love to your children who you spoke of with huge pride. Much love, Adrian and Angie.

Dingle you will never be forgotten by Ken and Sharen Bradley for exceptionally hard work in the Arthur Valley making over two miles if the Milford Track into a super highway. Thousands of tired trampers will benefit for years to come. You have trueley left your mark in Fiordland. Your Fiordland friends had a few drinks for you at the Black Dog.
A True character to be never forgotten.

Thinking of you all at this sad time, Dingle was such a hard working man and he adored all of you children and was always kind to others. He packed a whole lot of living into his life that's for sure, not one to sit around for long! Such a tragedy. May God comfort you and bring you close. <3

to the family of Dingle (Peter McPherson) We had the pleasure of having Dingle in our lives last autumn, winter on our farm and we feel devastated. Our deepest sympathy is with you all. He spoke of his children to me especially as we have children of similar age. We loved his sense of humour, hard working ethic and his company. He was due to arrive at our place this week to begin another 6 months and we were so looking forward to it. We would love to attend his farewell and will look ahead for any details. Sally, Rob, Thomas, and Jimmy Peter. Cape Campbell. Marlborough
