Dear Lucy, Tim, Harry and Joe, we are so deeply sorry for your loss of Will. He was such a cool kid living his best life and you all gave him all those opportunities. We remember riding the Heaphy together, watching the evolution of Will not loving the hill to James McKay Hut then leading out the front for the rest of the trip. Our most sincere heart-felt sympathy to you all. Annie and Terry

Dear Luce and Tim ... sorry could not be at the farm to celebrate Wills life and be there to support our dirty posh team mates. Mark, Hugh , Dave and I are in Japan and will have a some "POW" moments for Will. Thinking of you guys with heavy hearts. Sincerest - half THE DP GANG.

Sorry we wouldn't be at Hororata, as I was sick.
Sadly we never got to meet Will being at the other end of the island, but he's just the kind of cousin our Anna would have appreciated; adventurous, ambitious, and well respected.
In true family tradition, a Cookson of the mountains.
