My sincere sympathy to all of the Reesby family on the passing of Max. He was my teacher at Lepperton School in the early 50's

I have good memories of my cousin Max, and just wish I'd seen more of him and family over the long years, since I left Taranaki while still a child. More recently, I'll miss his email jokes! It was really good to catch up with him and Jo at Summerset in 2018, and I hope he'll keep up bowling from afar. Here's a photo taken in 1951 of Max and my own father Bill.

Jo and family my thoughts are with you all.

So sorry to hear your sad news Max and our late farther, Chris were great bowling mates and spent many hours at Waimea and other clubs around Taranaki, Max was also a great supporter of the Ironside trust with dad. His contribution to the community will be missed.
