To the Daly Family please accept my sincere condolences in the loss of Brian. My memories of Brian go back to my childhood I can remember he was a great Tractor & Car Operator, on more than a few occasions he caused quite a stir with his antics and daredevil stunts, like misjudged a loading ramp as a road and the car flew through the air, many a time doing 2 wheel turns at the bottom of McEwan's Hill turning on to Pleasant Valley Road. When Dominion Motors back in the day launched the new Leyland Tractor as the evening progressed and everyone had few to many beers Brian hopped on the Tractor and did sharp turns on the showroom floor.! In later years I enjoyed catching up with Brian when back in Timaru. Brian was a thoughtful and sincere person and always concerned for other peoples welfare and happiness.
