The Guard family are thinking of you all at this sad time. We all have wonderful memories of Kurt. As a young family, growing up at Tekapo we shared the fondest of times, to Kurt and Boyds adventures in the Mckenzie country, to the lasting friendship when we moved to Timaru. A life well lived, a man well loved and memories now treasured, Boyd, Maxine and family send our love to you all at this time.
