It is with deep regret that I advise you of the passing of two Gold star members.
First member is SFF Gary Jackson Martinborough Fire Brigade. Gary passed away yesterday Friday 18th January.
Second member is Ex Station Officer Colin Dodd of the former Petone Fire Brigade. Colin passed away during last night.
Both members would be well known in their respective areas
I will have a more formal notice and details for both members re funeral details once they are available.
At this sad time we extend our sincere condolences to both Gary’s and Colin’s Family and friends
Regards
John May
