ASHBURTON COMBINED<br />
FRIENDSHIP CLUB<br />
Club memberRobertaGoodgerspoke of her idyllic<br />
childhood on rural Otago Peninsula, attending aone<br />
room school but later bussing to Anderson’s Bay.<br />
Nursing training was in Christchurch before<br />
marrying and raising her three children. She returned<br />
to work as a technician in the ECG department at<br />
Christchurch Hospital and eventually became its<br />
manager.<br />
Roberta had astrong interest in music, dance, and<br />
community organisations, most notably the New<br />
Brighton Pier Trust.<br />
They retired to Bannockburn where vineyards and<br />
wineries were developing. Her husband started a<br />
retirement job and progressed to managing vineyards.<br />
Roberta did community work with COGS before<br />
she and her husband retired again, moving to<br />
<strong>Ashburton</strong> to be close to family.<br />
Errol gave a presentation on the career of Jim<br />
Burrows, All Black, All Black coach, secondary school<br />
teacher, WW2 Army Brigadier, secondary school<br />
principal, NZ Regular Army Officer commanding<br />
K-force in Korea and Japan, Commander of the<br />
Southern Military District and, on leaving the Army,<br />
Regional Commissioner for Civil Defence.<br />
Main speaker Roger Paterson reminisced about<br />
lifein<strong>Ashburton</strong>, growing up on Beach Road, attending<br />
Hampstead kindergarten, Hampstead School, and the<br />
<strong>Ashburton</strong> Technical College.<br />
Roger remembers sheep being driven along<br />
Beach Road and Chalmers Av to Fairton,spud picking<br />
in May and wars between the kids of Beach Road and<br />
Tancred Street.<br />
His sporting memories included athletics, tennis,<br />
rugby and basketball, which became a lifelong<br />
passion. He played regularly for 48 years, was active<br />
in administration,and refereed to ahigh level including<br />
in America and Australia.<br />
He was keen to join the police straight from school<br />
but was advised to do an apprenticeship first. He<br />
served his apprenticeship with renowned cabinet<br />
maker Arthur Stevens learning to design and make<br />
furniture and restore antiques.<br />
Employment as acasket maker led him into the<br />
funeral profession, and he started his own business in<br />
the 1980s. Later he became President of the NZ<br />
Funeral Directors Association.<br />
