Passed away after a short but courageous fight.

Much loved son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, uncle, and friend to many.

Our pillar of strength has fallen and we are heartbroken, but thankful to have had such a wonderful guiding hand helping us through life.

At dad's wishes, a private cremation has already been held however tributes and messages can be sent to 550 Tweed Street, Invercargill.

“Moe mai ra, e papa, rest easy dad, forever with us”.
