 He certainly is. Turned 80 this year and has recovered really well from a hip op.  An absolute delight who has so many stories and such an infectious laugh. Still pops in to the dining room after meals to talk to the guests.

A great bloke indeed.
We got to know him well at Kalumburu.
We spent a short time helping to build the new museum there and other jobs in 2007.
These pics were taken during the Mission centenary celebrations in 2008.

He would not remember us, but please pass on our best regards anyhow.

Cheers,

Peter
