Dennis Grimes has died.

Sad to relate that well known Palmerston  man Dennis Grimes has died.
Dennis was born in Palmerston in 1930. His parents were English immigrants who had moved to Tamba- Tamba in the mid 1920's.
Dennis spent his working life as a fisherman and lived in a cottage near the Quays. He never married and had no children.
His nephew, Noel Grimes paid tribute:
My Uncle Dennis Grimes was a truly unremarkable man. His main attribute was his consistency. Posterity? Nothing. Just a 100% ordinary  fellow who went about his daily routines, year in year out. He never asked nothing of nobody. He didn't really have many interests and I can't think of anything amusing to say about him.
