My sincere condolences to the Hanham family at this extremely difficult time. I hope you find some comfort in knowing Mike was loved and highly respected by so many. He will be sadly missed.

Deepest sympathy to you Di and the family

Ironically as I read this sad notice an earthquake quivered beneath, perhaps clear evidence the death of a legend has wide reverberations, not the least of which is grief which I share with Mick's loving family at this difficult time.

Iam really scratching to identify a more respected bloke in the Mid Canterbury region and beyond during my 10 years service to the area. A fine, principled and respected gentleman.
It is a true legacy when a smile graces your face at the recall of a loved one. Smile for Mick, respect his huge heart, love and achievements. He lives on in no small way in you good people.

May the hand of God guide him well. RIP

Deepest sympathy to all. A tough opponent at Easter Tournaments in the 1960's + 70's and a great bloke. (After the game.) May God bless him and you all. Jim Costello, Greymouth Marist.

Our thoughts and deepest sympathy to you all. With all our love
Harry and Mary Lowe

Leaves a very proud legacy
