The nicest of men always with a huge smile. A great friend to our whole family and amazingly supportive cricketing mentor to Karl.

On behalf of my whanau and myself we´d like to send our heartfelt condolences on hearing the news of Ali´s passing.

Although I didn´t know him well, as a player at NPOB CC my lasting memory is the times he helped me with my bowling in the nets at Western Park. It is still deeply engraved in my memory. My brother, Brad knew Kent at school and when our Father passed in November 1999 Ali sent a card of condolence to us which also sticks hard in my memory. And meant so much at a very sad time.

Go well to the other side Ali, the bowling attack just got a little more fire in it up there. I´ll send a few seeds down the track on Saturday in your memory

To Diane & family. So sorry to hear of Ali's passing. I first met Ali while working at Moa-Nui trading Store and the many times I visited the farm always got a welcome. In later years while at Waitara the many times I delivered maize & grass seed to the run off and Ali's visits to the store often to get new electric fence reels that vanished from the farm. The talks we had over nearly 40 years will always be remembered
