    Robbie had been in remission from cancer for a while and then it came back in August I think. It was pancreatic or liver. I haven't seen him since July and he was great, as sharp and clear thinking as ever and feeling good about the future.

    Cancer

    He had been very unwell for the last 2 years but that was a bonus.
    Agressive chemotherapy brought him more time with his family.
    I enjoyed very much just chewing the fat with him more often recently .
    He was still just Robbie and he outwardly was just getting on with things.

    Amanda has my good thoughts and i will remember him as " one of the good guys".

    Keep supporting Gunworks with your trade and hopefully we will continue to have their great range of products in the South island

    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    I believe he had been battling leukaemia for a few years.

    Condolences to the family, and team at Gunworks - always straight and true like their work.
    A big hole and boots to fill for the industry in NZ now.

    Another to remember and reminisce about over a beer and a bonfire at the Toby Shoot #cancersucks
