He was also involved in the Methodist Church, played in the orchestra for several Blenheim Musical Theatre shows, and was an active member of the Marlborough Tramping Club.
He passed away on Friday the 2nd, aged 83 at Oxford, North Canterbury, where he lived for around the last 25 years.
His funeral is being held at Oxford Union Church, 1pm Thursday, but will be live streamed, so any of his friends or work colleagues will be able to view the service online.
If anyone has any messages, they can pass them on to me.
Just a week before he died Ecan recognised his efforts over many decades in this article: www.ecan.govt.nz...
Given Dad's interest in conservation, rather than flowers, native trees that can be planted and bring pleasure to future generations would be preferable to flowers.

The reserve he created is in Canterbury, but he had an association with Marlborough since he was a child, so I'd quite like to plant a tree for him somewhere here too.
