I treasure the time that Don and I worked together in the Head Office of the ANZ Bank. His brilliant intellect, his sporting and musical prowess, and his unwavering support will remain in my memory. Dear Don, from now on you shall have fair winds and a following sea.

My sincerest condolences on the passing of Don. He will be remembered as a hard-working, honest and fun loving man. He was always ready with a good anecdote and he helped me a lot when I first started in Research Services at Massey.

We will miss your cheerful face at our parades at Lake Rotoiti. You always had a friendly smile and would call at the committee table for a chat. You were a pleasure to have along. XX00
