Hello Ann. Very sad to hear that Tom had died. Just got back from holidays and saw the death notice. Was going to ring yesterday, but can't find contact details in the phone book.
When next in town, i'll pop in to your Otipua Road address.
Thinking of you.

To Ann and family, I am so sorry and my heart felt sympathy in the loss of Tom. I recall when I was a barman at The Rsa, what a funny witty man he was, and always a pleasure to talk to. Farewell Tom
