Another birder has passed away

On the 24th of January last week I received a phone call from Shaydeen
Schrader informing me that her husband of many years, Neville, had passed
away at home after a long battle with cancer. Neville was well known to many
NSW birders, especially from his time living in Parkes where his
conservation activities were rewarded with him being awarded an OAM. He had
moved to Orange to be nearer better medical services that he could not
receive in Parkes. Neville’s funeral was held last Friday. He will be sadly
missed by his many friends and colleagues. My sympathies go to Shaydeen and
his family, Robert, Jodi and Natasha.
