We are so sorry to hear of Brian's passing. I will miss his cheeky chatter at my place of work. He has been such an inspiration to so many and made a real difference for Christ.
Praying for Shirley and families.

Hi Pegler family.
I was so sorry to read of Brian's passing. My name is Biz Jens (McIvor). I knew Brian from Palmerston North Teachers college and from Queen Street Church.
I enjoyed hospitality and generosity in your home and with your family.
I really appreciated Brian's interest in us students not only as practitioners but as followers of Jesus. He helped us to think and reflect on what it meant to be a Christian in our day to day living but also in the classroom. He modelled to us what Christ meant to him, in the way he lived and interacted with others.
He has left a faithful legacy to his family and his grandkids.
My condolences to Sheila and his family.
PS lovely to see you a while back Leanne.
