Rory de GROOT Obituary

I was so saddened to hear of Rory's passing. He was an incredible person and someone who always made me laugh. Rest Easy Brother, you fought hard until the end!! My condolences to Rory's family and partner xx

You were the best friend I ever had. I've avoided this platform but I've been definitely going thru it for a month now. And id expect the same from you. You changed my life extremely from the start in Otago to the end in Queensland. I will never have a friend as good as you again.

Way too many memories to share here so I´ll just share my favourite one. One time Rory and I dressed up as KITT and Michael knight and we also wore incredibly skimpy lingerie and came 3rd in a modelling competition for charity that was hosted by local radio. You really were one of the best mates I ever had. Thankyou for everything you did for me.

I miss you mate. I won´t ever forget you
