No doubt, you are all aware the Dr. George Mason passed away in September.  George has been a valued member for 10 years with our group.  He was a very generous philanthropist within the local community and with the Auckland University, supporting the arts, education and the environment.  His trust fund will continue to support these ideals into the future.

The following tribute was posted on the Legacy memorials for George’s family.

Taranaki Branch of NZ Founders wish to acknowledge George's membership over the last 10 years and his contribution to the vitality of our group. A lovely humble man who has achieved so much in his lifetime. Through his legacies and mentoring his memory will always remain in our community and within our group. RIP George, your work on earth has been amazingly well done.
Carol Cowling, on behalf of your friends in Founders.
