  18. Rest in peace Mr McKay. We worked together for 8 years at Johnstones and as I grew from that 16 year old kid who started I could never call you Tony. We had the best people to work with and one Thursday night after we balanced our cattle sales you and Mal Maxfield decided to try to ride my motorbike - down the lane and up Murray Street. Nobody fell off which was a bonus. Deepest sympathy to Mr McKay's family and friends. He was a true gentleman XXXXXXX Rosie Egan-Philipson
