***********

Nominated by Alan Middleditch from Dunedin: "My local motor garage is CJ Sinclair 50 Charlemont Street, Ranfurly 9332. The owner is Richard Smith whose family have been in the motor trade in the Ranfurly Naseby area for over 100 years. During the last years lock down our car broke down and would not start leaving us feeling quite uncomfortable as we live some distance from medical & other services. Richard came to our rescue and later returned to provide a more suitable repair. We need such companies and people in our rural areas. Richard demonstrates such excellent attributes required in our area."
