I'm not a 'pruner' normally, but this one deserves a post.
Whilst so much has been said already, there is so much more to say and then too, words can never be enough.
Brian was a good worker, a good guy and to quite a few of us a good friend as well.
Kiwi was 38 years old and leaves behind a wife and 2 children, their youngest only 4.
Now that we've had the service, said some words, shed some tears and caught up with friends from around the world, we have to get back to the business of sorting life.
In the process of preparing for the funeral, I came to realise that I have quite a few digital photos of Kiwi mostly from our time in Thailand.
Maybe I can share some with a few of his mates for your logbooks or whatever. Let me know.
Brian will be missed by all of his friends and workmates past and present, but his family has a more difficult time ahead. Indeed a 'terrible' loss.
To Mary and the girls, to parents Kevin and Lois, Tony, Ricky and Donna his siblings, our thoughts are with you as you grieve.
Let's hope we can offer support when it's right.
Rest in peace Brian, until we meet again.

I had the pleasure of meeting and spending some time with Brian in 98-99 on the Tuna boats out of Guam.
I would describe Brian as a thoroughly splendid bugger, a man's man, his sense of humour and yarning made him great to be around.
One rather memorable night out in Guam with Brian and another kiwi fellow saw us drinking 'Mudslides' all night by an idyllic looking waterfront bar, however, I found myself spending a significant part of the evening lying face down on a beach volleyball court....happy days.
I won't forget ya mate.
My condolences and best wishes to Brian's family and friends.

Hans, I would very much like some of those digital photos of Kiwi. Just as you said - for the logbook. I think that would be a prudent place for them.
Good to hear you.
