The long lunches in the old days, conversations, and much, much, more. Including
your irrational attitude to Collingwood victories over the Blues.
In all a good laugh and fun.

Twenty plus years on the Committee of Carlton Cricket Club! Usually found behind the bar and the first person most visitors met. Always welcoming, always had a story or two and even shared a beer or two. Lots of fond memories Koko – you will be sadly missed but never forgotten! A glass or two will be raised in your honour. RIP mate.

Nicko you are going to be terribly missed by so many, including yours truly.
You were not just someone who made me feel a part of your family but also that ‘other’ family the Carlton Football & Cricket Clubs.
Your friendship will not be forgotten and our many conversations over the years are endearing memories of the vastness of your life’s experiences.
With your beloved Marcia forever.

Bill Taylor
I bumped into Nick on occassions after Moreland High School and we always immediately felt as though we had seen him the previous week. Of course the main topic was the Mighty Blues. We will miss hearing of what mistakes they were making and how to fix them OR how well they were doing. Probably the easiest bloke to like. RIP.
John Etcell
