My condolences to The Molloy Family sadly I saw this only a few weeks ago. Uncle Brian was so pleased to find a sister (my Mum) from his past shortly before she passed away. I was so happy I visited in 2021. I would be happy if someone can provide me the video funeral link for myself and my two brothers who remember Brian fondly.

My thoughts are with your family, Brian and dad (Derrick Rooney) shared a lot together and I have great memories of them fossicking the hills for plants together .

Brian was a remarkable man who had a profound influence on the management and preservation of native trees and plants. His advice and encouragement over many years was of great help to us at Gordon“s Valley in the management of native bush gullies. His legacy will be ongoing.

So sad to learn of the passing of Brian, an eminent botanist. Dr Eric Godley and Brian would attend rugby matches together. After a loss, they would walk back home and say "well, at least we have our plants ."
RIP Brian and thank you for all you have contributed to New Zealand
