Lance's quiet wry humour, kindness and willingness to share his knowledge of hunting will always stay with us. Fond memories of taking Mary into the hills hunting deer and wallabies. Heartfelt condolences to Karen and family. Hay family, Pleasant Point

Hopkins Family had a lot of contact and fun with all the ORourkes.
We spent a lot of time down at the Opihi river huts where the ORourke family lived, no doubt creating all sorts of mischief.
It was great to have caught up with Lance and Karen at the family reunion late last year and also be able to catch up again just a few weeks ago when we were travelling around the top of the South Island.
Our deepest condolences at this time.
The Hopkins Families of Roger, Sandra and Robyn.
