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
