As co-Lay Preacher representative with Keith on the Lower North Island Synod I want to pay tribute to Keith's long dedication and outstanding service to lay preaching at local, regional and national levels. He will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences to family. I would also like to add that I was impressed by the fine tributes paid by all who spoke at the funeral with special mention of the grandchildren.

I was very shocked and saddened to hear of Keith's sudden death, we played bridge together for years, shared lots of laughs and differences of opinion, always in a kind way. His last request to me was to buy some pink wafer biscuits for morning tea.... his favourites! Rest gently Keith
