To Jane, Rachel and all Bill's family Our deepest condolences on the passing of your much loved Father, father in law and Grandfather. Bill was a good friend and best man in every sense of the word! As dad's (Norman's) memories of the past grow stronger, Bill is often thought of and reminisced about here in Wellington, New Zealand. With many happy memories of their time spent on the RMS Rangitane... Norman Cox and family
