To Maureen and Family, It is with much sadness that I learned of Mark's recent passing, and I wish to pass on my condolences to you and the family, in your time of loss. Though Mark may have physically passed on, memory of him will remain with those of us who were lucky enough to know and work with him in days gone by, and he will be fondly remembered as a very competent individual who was always able to make time for a friendly chat. During preparations for the Tasman Forestry Reunion held in Mar 2024, Mark was instrumental in assisting with the compilation of our list of ex-TFL/FCF colleagues names and contacts, to enable the Reunion Committee to spread the news of that event. I have passed on news of Mark's passing to 170 odd ex-colleagues tonight, and I would expect that some of them will be in attendance on Tuesday. I hope to catch up with you and members of the family at that time. Kind regards Phil Collins
