Ray Inkersole
Rodney Rams League Club president Raymond George Inkersole was remembered at a special gathering at the clubhouse on August 3.
Raymond, 81, died in a car accident on Matakana Road on July 27 while on his way to the club.
He co-founded the club in 1993 with Keith Lawson and was involved at committee level before becoming president over a decade ago.
He contributed $15,000 to build the new clubhouse deck after the original facility burnt down during an electrical fire in 2014.
Raymond also ran raffles to fundraise for the rest of the clubhouse, which will be officially opened next month.
More than 100 relatives, friends and club members were present to pay tribute to Raymond and remember the contribution he made to rugby league in the Rodney area.
His ashes were scattered across the rugby league field at the Whangateau Domain.
