  25. I was sorry to read of Mr Harley’s passing. He was a true gentleman and such a lovely man.

    I have great memories from my childhood of going on bus trips with my family, stopping for the yummy cuppa and sandwich breaks along the way.

    My mother also enjoyed a Murray Princess holiday, travelling on a tour organised by Mr and Mrs Harley.

    Respected and well liked by all of our family, particularly my late Dad, who thought the world of Mr Harley.

    Our sympathies are extended to the Harley family, and love to Mrs Harley.
