Hi Marlene and Family
Have just found out Nigel passed away recently. While we haven't seen you for many years we fondly remember our days at Kaimata and our neighbours there. Nigel was a special person who always looked out and helped us lots. He also had special names for all the kids in Kaimata. Loved his rugby and always supportive of us referees!
Our thoughts are with you.
Kind regards
Paul and Margaret
