Tasman Blizzard

I knew a boy.
I first met him when he was about 12.
He was the little brother of my dear friend.
He grew up and became a surfer,
A rock star,
A psychologist,
And a beautiful man.
He had time for everybody. He made me smile.
He was one of the good ones, a gentle, gentle soul.

He died on Friday.


He crashed his car and left us.


I'm so grateful that his world touched mine.


Goodbye Tas.



Tasman Blizzard 1972 - 2008

Jen, I just wanted you to know that my thoughts are with you and James(and co) at this time and I'll be thinking of you on Sun/Mon.
To loose someone is the worst thing, to loose someone in tragic circumstances is even harder to deal with................
Celebrate the wonderful life Tas had and know he's rocking with the best of them in a beautiful place .........
