It is with sadness that we report on the passing of FMC’s patron, Allan Evans. Allan was 95 years old.

Allan was FMC’s president in the early 1970s, and did extensive work on the South Island high country, as well as with the New Zealand Deerstalkers Association.

A service to celebrate Allan’s life will be held at Trinity Presbyterian Church, Hally Terrace, Temuka, on Wednesday, June 20, at 11.00am, followed by burial at the Temuka Cemetery.

Allan’s death notice was published in The Press today.
