Deeply loved husband and best friend of Mary for over 53 years.

Cherished grandad “Buck” of Ben, Matthew, and Luca.

At Owen’s request a private family cremation has been held.

We extend a warm welcome to everyone who has been privileged enough to have known Owen to come to a celebration of his life on Wednesday 31st at the Te Anau Events Centre at 1.30pm and to stay on afterwards for Buck’s, “final shout.”

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Neurological Foundation would be appreciated.
