To Robyn and Family Deeply sorry to hear of your father's passing. He liked to back the racehorses when I was riding. I will always have fond memories of Mo. Yours sincerely Peter Harris.
Very sad that Mo has passed away, and kind wishes to all of his family. I went to primary school with Mo, and we were good friends. We used to go to the Friday night movies regularly at the Vogue theatre in the square mainly for the horror movies. Mo used to have the Awapuni paper run and occasionally I used to help him out with it when he went away on holiday etc. Sadly I lost contact with him when we went to secondary school. Our days at Central school were really good. Our tea Cher in standard 4 was Mrs Gosling, and she stood no nonsense from some of the boys who played up a bit. It’s so sad that Mo has passed away,please accept my condolences. Brian Dredge.
