In memory of Callum Edwards. Callum was a contemporary of mine at Waikato University. He was my cell group leader, and first got me involved in public speaking etc. Callum was a very straight up and honest guy, who told you when you were drifting off the straight and narrow which was what I needed in my early days of my Christian faith. I have not seen him for seven or 8 years being at wrong ends of the Island.
I understand Callum died while playing Hockey on Monday night in Wellington. He must be about my age (around 36 or 37). Please pray for his wife and child.

Hi there,
I also went to Waikato Uni and recognise your photo but don't really remember where from (whether from the church I went to in Hamilton or from the bible groups set up at the Uni). I was a friend of Callum at Uni and in Wellington where I moved after finishing my degree. I went to the same church as Callum in Wellington - he introduced me and I also met his wife but cannot remember her name unfortunately although I went to bible study with her a few times (would be grateful if you could trigger my memory). I lost touch with Callum in 2001 when I moved to Sydney and was very shocked to see your posting regarding his death - I have seen postings from the school he taught at too. I would love to be able to get in touch with his wife somehow as I understand their son has a disability and has a trust fund set up - if you have any contact details I would be grateful. Thanks Kim Kemp (nee Nichols)-

Hi Kim (Marks Sister?)
Sounds like you know more than me. I would suggest getting back in touch with the church you both went to in Wellington and asking them about it. We are still in contact with a few of Callums old friends, Phil & Marcia, Richard and Cass. But everyone lost touch after varsity with Callum I think.

Yes it is Mark's sister! Thanks for replying to my message I'll get in touch with a few people I went to church with in Wellington who may still be there and know more. BTW My brother Mark is now in Auckland working for the Bible College in Henderson I think - I have contact details if you want them and wish to get in touch.
