Good bye Nev . You were so special to me when we worked together at the CFM in cashew st in the late 60´s and 70´ and then when I worked at Borthwicks . A real man in every way - honest, respectful, kind and in love with the outdoors with your bach at Bealey . I loved catching up with you briefly after we moved to Nelson and later going to Crete to see the place of " the Lion " . Thanks for your life Neville . Cheers Craig Boyce
