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.
