Greg and I are so deeply sorry and devastated to learn of Bill’s tragic passing and extend to you all our deepest sympathy and love at this extremely painful time. Barry and Pam it is only a few months since we were chatting with you at Malcolm and Sue’s about how wonderful life in Christchurch was for Bill and Nic and the children. It also only seems like yesterday when we last saw Bill, so full of life and robust, enthusiastic as always about the move ahead of the family. My memories of Bill are full and vibrant- since childhood, year after year of those Australia Day cricket matches. In the earlier years Bill being the first of the gorgeous ‘Perry Boys’ to have his license, and take us for rides around Malcolm and Sues property in the first of the MG’s. Then in later years always heading up the ‘Australian’ team. His integrity, honesty, fairness, sense of humour and that booming distinctive voice I can still hear now. His smile and deep love and respect of his family, are qualities that immediately come to mind when I think of Bill. An absolute gentleman with the most caring and wonderfully good soul. To know Bill was to love him, and although I saw so very little of him over the years, he was a man that made you a better person, just for having known him and the way he approached life. We are so sorry we can’t be with you to farewell Bill, but we will be with you all in spirit. We extend our sincerest condolences to you and send you all our love and strength at this time. With much love, Helen & Greg White (and Lachie & Ella)
