So sad to hear of Mikes passing. I met him playing squash also. Such a lovely guy and wished I 'd spent more time in his happy funny space. Condolences to the family he will be sadly missed.

Very sad to see that Mike has passed away. I played squash with Mike at the Waimea club several years ago. He was always so friendly and as others have said would light up the room with his big smile. Condolences to the family, he will be missed by you all.

Deepest sympathy to Michelle and family. One of the flat cap club at Sprig Tahuna, we'll miss his dry sense of humour on Friday nights. God bless and rest in peace Mike. "You'll Never Walk Alone"

Mike could light up any room with a glint in his eye, his warm smile and his sense of humour.
He started off as a work colleague and ended up as a friend. Sending all our love Michelle to you and your family.
