Just seen this on the Duckworks site. A very nice man that will be sadly missed. Sympathies to his family.

Sad News

Hello friends,

I am the bearer of sad news, our wonderful brave father Mark Steele passed away yesterday the 27th March at around 5.15 p.m. at North Shore Hospital. While his terminal illness meant that this was not unexpected, complications arose causing him to go into a steep and irrevocable decline over the previous 48 hours. You were amongst his large and loyal group of friends and he was extremely particular that I should notify you in short order.

His funeral will take place on Monday 31st March at 11.00 a.m. St Joseph's Church, Taharoto Rd, Takapuna, Auckland and this will be followed by a private cremation.

Dad appreciated your friendship and support, and as a family we thank you for being a part of his life and times.

May God rest his soul.

Sincerely
 Tim Steele
 (Mark's son)
 On behalf of:
 Mark Steele's family

Mark was a gentleman of the old school. He will be missed. Fairwinds and deep blue seas, Mr. Steele.
