Remembered with great affection from his teaching years in Ruawai mid fifties! The town would be proud of his subsequent rise to be a leader in teaching ranks in Palmerston North. Recalled as a teacher of English at our District High School; mild of manner, popular. A pleasure recalled - sincere sympathy Mrs Forrest and family. 71 years is a huge marriage!
