So sorry to hear of the passing of my special friend Curly, sincere condolences to Jan and the family. I will miss my visits to the West End Bowling Club to have a cold beverage with Curly and Nev when I return from Perth, sending lots of love Jan xx RIP Curly xx

Aww Curls, a bloody good bugger! I loved working with Curly back in the Social Welfare days and having a yak at the bowling club when I was checking in with Dad. Much love and hugs Jan. Rest in love Curly xx

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

So sad to hear Jan and family, I remember working with Curly when I first started at what was known then as Dept of Social Welfare back in 1987, he was a wonderful father figure and I've never forgotten his kindness in looking after a scared 17 year old straight out of school, fond memories of good times, RIP

To Jan Ian Karen and Sandy and family what a battle Curls put up. He was so lucky to have you all as such a close knit family. and who supported him through his operations in Wellington. What a thrill it was to eventually bring Curls back to New Plymouth and finally to get back home and look out over at the Bowling club and Sanders park. My condolences to you all and what a bloody battle he fought. Love to you all Colleen and family

Our love to you Jan and family what a great man living life to the winning post
