Owen was a kind and compassionate man who helped our family, especially my mother, while he was vicar at St Stephen's in Tahunanui.
His spiritual guidance was greatly appreciated and the genuine kindness extended to our family by Owen and Elizabeth will always be remembered.
A warm and caring man who humbly served the Lord to help others.
