Our condolences and prayers go out to the family of Dell. I spent two happy years working for Gavin and Dell in 1980 and 81. My wife Michelle joined as a DA and assisted Graeme Clark in 81. I remember Dell being a cheerful practice manager and as such a very important part of the work set up.I remember lush bunches of proteas from their garden in the waiting room, and salmon and lettuce for lunch in the back room. Good for health and longevity. It seems to have worked.
Kind wishes,
Peters and Michelle Rumping
