Kath Barbara and I were shocked to see your canoeing partner has gone out on his own.
Obvious it's a relief. Always welcome here and if you want any flowers at anytime you know where you can get them other than yoour garden.

To Kathryn and Family,
So sorry to hear of Dave's passing. He was a respected workmate and friend. I worked on many building sites with Dave.
He was an excellent tradesman. We had lots of discussions trying to solve the world's problems.
He will be sorely missed, and gone well before his time.
