I am so sad to read this and sorry I read it after his funeral. Adrian was my boss back in the Aoraki International College days and we had many a laugh. I'm sorry I have not seen him for awhile but have very happy memories of time spend with him. RIP Adrian. You will be missed by many.

It's hard to believe that Adrian the Great Communicator, so full of enthusiasm, humour, interest and knowledge is no longer with us and I wish I could be there to say a final goodbye. He was my boss for ten years; in later years a dear friend. Like so many of us, I will so miss sharing stories and telling tales but oh, I'm so glad to have known him.

Some years ago Adrian wrote this for another great man. Now we can say the same about Adrian: "People from all walks of life rejoiced in his company. He harboured no malice, looked down upon no one and had a unique ability to make people feel good about themselves." Sleep well, dear friend. Alan Chisholm and family
