It’s not surprising to learn that another group of industry people has organised a get-together to show their warm appreciation for retired and admired lamb buyer Noel Rutley.
Echuca-Moama stock agent Gerald Barnes said that a more low-key affair (drinks and a yarn) had been arranged for agents and lamb suppliers in the central, northern and Riverina districts at the Border Inn Hotel, Moama, Friday, June 9, (note the corrected date) beginning with a midday luncheon..
Mr Barnes said that Noel Rutley was a well respected buyer at the Bendigo, Deniliquin and former Kerang and Echuca saleyards and privately for more than 50 years, and it was a further opportunity to wish Noel the best for his retirement.
