Hi Jill and Wider Oliver Family
I have just become aware today (4/7/25) of Michael's passing and am very shocked
I Coached Rugby with Him at Ashburton Celtic in 1987/88 and caught up with him again in Timaru in 1990 when we shifted to Timaru, plus in Melbourne in 2001
Mike was a great friend, outstanding person and Rugby Coach whom enjoyed life to the full
We were in Perth over Xmas/New Year thus wasn't aware , thus so devastated to find out this very sad News
Treasure the Memories
Thinking of You All at this very sad time

Kindest Regards

Lyn & Don Garland
