Dear Lesley, Laura, Julie, Jason and family
It was lovely to see you after all these years and to remember the 14 years that I had the pleasure of working with Graeme at the Auckland Regional Authority Parks Department. We had many "pooh adventures" which often involved driving around Auckland to get the best discount prices for the social club bar and long lunches at fancy locations. Graeme's passion for his garden, his car, his home (meticulously painted) and the sea were an inspiration. His deep love for his family and friends made it a privilege to know him. I hope we meet again soon to share more memories.
