Grant, you were taken too soon and leave a void impossible to fill. You will be sadly missed by all that knew you both personally & professionally - the world is a poorer place without you in it. I hope you are having a blast on your boat out on the sounds in the sky! Our sincere condolences to Grant’s family & New Zealand Police colleagues at this terribly sad time. Clive Turner & the team at First Rescue NZ
