Goodbye Pebble Rebel

January 28, 2017June 20, 20173 Comments

I’m not ready to die, said Bill:

I have so much to do,

I have my yacht to sail

And to do some travelling too.

I am sorry Bill the big man said, with a gentle smile.

Come sit with me & rest your bones

And we’ll watch the world sail by

 

 

Bill Byford, obituary in the Dominion Post today.

Bye Bill. Lots of love Jan, and family. From Janie and Dean, and Pebbles.
