Dear Paul ,Marianne and Helen,
The passing of a wonderful man remembered with great fondness. No more wonderful fishing adventures with extraordinary tales to tell! No more swimming records taking years to be broken!
We share your sorrow and are thinking of you all. Kindest regards, Liz and Andrew Cunningham Australia
