You were my boxing trainer, employer on the concrete mixer and a friend who I looked up to and admired. You nick-named me "Teasy Weasy the fighting Barber" and some ex boxers still refer to me as Teasy.
I was proud when the Australians took you as Trainer to the Olympics. And enjoyed our catch ups in Blacktown NSW and Timaru. You have had a good innings as folk say, wherever you are "Shake hands, and when the bell rings come out fighting" -- Teasy aka Peter Smith former light Middle and Middle weight TBC
