Colleen and family, sorry to hear of Hobos' passing. Have many great memories of playing golf with both Hobo and you Colleen. Hobo always took great interest and supported our mens pennant teams. Many laughs and stories shared at the "19th". Thinking of you all at this difficult time. RIP Hobo.

Condolences to Mrs. Hobbs and Family.
Quite a few years ago Mr. Hobbs gave me a tip at the races for a trifecta - all three horses came in.
A few weeks later at the Urenui Hotel he asked me how much I collected. He was very surprised when he realised I had only collected approximately $100. Being a very naive punter, I had backed the horses all individually therefore missing out on the big win!
Thinking of you all
Sue Radcliffe and Family
