To the Paterson family from Ina (cousin of Jock's) and Kathleen Beggs, Geraldine NZ
Jock was an amazing man. He was always loyal and trustworthy and a great cousin and friend. He worked for Sinclair for a while and was a great asset to the business. He loved his family and always talked proudly of them. We always enjoyed his visits. We were glad to spend some time with him at the beginning of 2017 in Invercargill. He will be greatly missed by so many. It is wonderful he was still active to the end of his full life.
