Catching up with Brian and the team with their amazing voluntary work maintaining and restoring our Cemeteries. I battled on their behalf to remove what I could of the overly risk-adverse NCC red tape that impinged their incredible work.

Also, a wealth of knowledge these men and women have on the locations and history of many of the pioneers of Nelson buried at Wakapuaka Cemetery.
