Sincere condolences to all. Celebrating the life of an amazing man. Bryan was a committed man in all he did, the church, the family and the Wainui Rugby Club. All our children went to school with a Watt child. Eric played rugby with Bryan. He always referred to Eric as young man'
A note worthy opponent on the field playing for the Waggs against Eric playing for the Tanners.
Bryan will be missed by many.
Baker Family Tricia, Eric, Ricky, Todd, Kim and Melanie.

Brian never failed to visit my brother Jack who was in a dementia unit. Jack responded so well to memories of the past. When I was a young mum Brian gave a talk to the Catholic Women's league about household budgeting. So very useful. Brian and Ann such a wonderful unit. Rest In Peace Brian and condolences to Ann and the family. Arohanui

God has called back Bryan, one of his strongest soldiers for a rest. He was a multitask worker for his family, various community groups and mostly his great faith in God especially his devotion to our Holy Mother Mary's precious Rosary. Deepest condolences to Ann and the family. Rest in peace and love Bryan.
Love from Anthony Leva'aoalae and Phoenix, Emily Leva'aoalae Burke and Robert Burke family.

I remember his laugh most of all, it was uniquely his and such a dry sense of humour, delivering jokes with a straight face that you wondered if he was serious or joking. I wish I could be there in person and listen to all the stories you remember of him because there are so many great ones for such a great man.
May God bless you all and keep you close.
Much love from me.

To the Watt family. Deepest condolences at this sad time. I held your husband/Dad/Grandfather in the highest esteem, for his quiet unwavering faith and how hard he worked for those in need, until he couldn't. We have lost someone truly great. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen.

To the Watt Family
Sending Sincere & Deepest Sympathy at this sad time to you all.
Remembering Brian for his dedication to Wellington Representative Rugby. Brian was my Manager for the Wellington Under 19 Representative Team in the late 1990's.
He used to call me Young Fella and I always called him Old Man, this went on for all the following years whenever we met up at Wainui or Porirua Parks.
Rest in Peace Old Man you will be sorely missed but a life well lived in God's Service
We have you all in our thoughts & prayers at this sad time May he Rest in Eternal Peace
Love from Bruce & Linda Collett
