Donald MCCALLUM Obituary

Donald you have earnt a well good rest.
We had lots of fun & time together when you pulled into visit Fay McCallum ( Deceased ). Had good times, Evenings, Meals, together and watched John Deer Tractor & Combine Harvester T.V shows.
I enjoyed & loved your company uncle Donald when Dad Stuart McCallum (Deceased) was about.
Thinking of you in my sleeps each night.
We will miss your Dump runs now that you did for us too.
Rest in peace now Uncle Donald.
Had good times & silly times from when we were on the Riverlands staying in the Old Farm House when I was Little.

Donald you have earnt your rest, We managed to keep you on the farm until you become unwell, caring for you along with Nurse Maude for over 3 years , you still drove your 4 wheel mule you called your bike around the farm supervising the hay and balage being made and you enjoyed your long catch ups and chats with Grand son Tom every chance you got you both talking tractors trucks and all things farming , specially after Tom returned from the Australian out back where he work on a 3000 hectre cropping property , Tom showed u pics of the biggest tractors ud seen you joked and said the 3350 and 2650 could out do those Ozzie John deeres . you enjoyed coming to the farm on sundays until your mobility robbed you of that , And you loved hearing that Tom was working for a cousin for 6 months over this last summer in Methven he would send through videos of the gear he was operating we would show you, your words were every time hes a Chip of the old block, You verbalised multi times you were tired and you swore at us too toward the end as you were tired and after loosing your mobility you wanted to go, as yes you were always active could never sit still, So rest now From us Grant myself and your cherished chip of the old block grand son Tom

Worked with Don for a short time ,he was one of the Worlds true gentlemen. Didn't matter what the time of day or what Day of the year Donald would be out Contracting doing work for others . The Donald McCallum I new was soo busy helping others he had little time to enjoy life . Don your time in the Land Rover and John Deere are over.
