All that need to be written here is that I miss the old folks who provided real inspiration in my life. God bless them all.

* In 1960 I was accepted as a junior member of The Ratana Takutai Moana Choir
* 1961, I was enrolled as a Junior bandsman with The Ratana Morehu Brass Band.
Therefore my training is accredited under the two mentioned above
My achievements as a Ratana bandsman was fully recognised by my private tutor Mrs.French of Whanganui who took me through The Royal School of Music Academy. Credit also goes out to Rainey Francis who was my Mentor& Maestro for The Alexandra Brass Band, in Whanganui. For the moment this is about all I wish to write and may add other subjects over a course of time Kia Ora
