Sydney, I am so sorry I will not be able to attend Uncle Tacks funeral. I wish now I had taken more time to get to know Tasker better. When Laurie and I visited you and Tack in Palm Beach it will be a day I'll never forget. Laurie and I have been married for 16 years and have 2 wonderful teenagers. Our anniverary was on the day Tasker died. It will be a double celebration each June of a wonderful man and a wonderful wife and family. All my Love, Arden, Laurie,Austin and Hannah

Sydney: I have fond memories of Uncle Tack (although he was actually Dads cousin) in Longport. He introduced me to macadamian nuts!! Like all the Lowndes Boys; he was a real gentleman and he will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
