I was gutted to learn only yesterday that my old mate Temp had passed away. The old bush telegraph let me down, Temp was a mate and for a while a business partner in Temps Bar.
I have so many good memories of Temp Shooting chasing Salmon Jet boating with lots of laughing he always had a quick wit and a joke to tell and his poems after 30 years I knew them all.
I will miss you old boy you were one best humans that have been my life.
Rest in peace old mate loved you like a brother.

Deepest sympathy on the passing of Temps. He was one great guy and I originally met him when I worked at LION. He was a great sort and always good value at events. RIP Temps
