Condolences to the whanau. I grew up in Bernie's shearing sheds and also knew him on the golf course. He was a nice gentleman. RIP Bernie. Arohanui Noeline

So sorry to hear about Bernie's passing, have many happy memories when we were young fella's working for Eric and Jean Powdrell of Tawhara Valley, giant discing on a lot of farms around the Wairoa district. There was Brian Hill, Allan Hill, Allan Squires and myself and Bernie. We all had HD5 Ellis Chalmers bulldozers and 5 a side giant discs, those were the days. Rest in Peace Bernie.
