  • This is my granddad, my mums father. I remember you granddad, quite solemn and I was never sure around you. You had a big smile and always a little distant. I heard you where very generous to people and particularly during the depression as a Butcher in Wellington you ensured people had the meat they needed to feed their families. I remember traveling with you from Auckland to Wellington in the Morris Minor, quiet a trip in the back seat for me. Thinking of you, Love Barbara
