Folks,

I don't know if this is the appropriate place to put this but his son rang me last night to let us know we lost an excellent fish breeder and a good friend to the hobby on Wednesday morning.

Andrew.

Thankyou Andrew,

Yes, I believe it IS appropriate to post Floris' passing.

He was a great supporter of Killiphiles in NZ,

and a member of that club and the Federation for many years.

and in THAT circle he will be missed.

Another link out of our chain of killi-keepers.

Maybe the FNZAS could show their sadness in his passing,

in the death of a Fish Keeper, and supporter of the NZKA and the FNZAS,

in an appropriate way.

Just a thought.

RIP Floris

Alan

Today, in the mail I got a bit of a suprise.

Floris' wife Denise sent me a bunch of killifish photos and slides

(along with a really nice note) she'd found while sorting out his

stuff. I'm well chuffed. He always had way too high an opinion

of me.

Andrew.
