Last Sunday, unknown to me that Mark had passed, I sent this message. ` Hi mate. How are you doing. Just listening to Bridge over troubled waters & thought of you. Bodge. ` I shared some wonderful moments over the years with Wilko from Whangamata to New Plymouth. A kind heart, hard case & friend who I appreciated sharing our journeys´. You will be missed but never forgotten champ. I´ll always remember sharing an apple pie with cream that stayed in your beard,from the Fitzroy bakery when we were on our Post Office van breaks.
My best to all your family & friends. Love you Wilko. Bodge aca Colin McGonagle
