Sorry to hear of Ernies passing. I worked for him for 7 years at Takanini. A great boss with high standards and great ethics. I learned a lot during my years there. Morning smokos were memorable with his stories of life in Te Kuiti. Who would have known I ended up living here. He would often pop in to say hello when visiting Ivan. He was immensely proud of his daughters and grand children.

Farewell to a lovely lovely man.
