    Woah, now there is a blast from the past!

    Joe was a CO or maybe DO when I was young. Late eighties, early nineties maybe? Lovely brother, and well liked. I remember hearing years later during one of those 'I wonder what happened to X' conversations that he had 'gone apostate'. Can't offer any more than that sorry.

    A more recent defection is Doug Black. Not sure if he became apostate in the common sense of the word, but the rumour was that he got involved in extra-marital shenanigans, got disfellowshipped and was working toward becoming a police lawyer. Great guy, he was sorely missed by us young bros when he went.

    Hello Karter,

    Small world eh, especially the JW world! Joe is probably the furtherest back my memory goes, although I do remember a bald guy who used to make lots of jokes, and would make us sing two songs at the end of the assembly. I can never remember his name, does that sound like Hubler? The only other names from back then I can remember on the circuit work are the Ridlings and the Kramers.

    Are you from NZ / Aussie?

    The bald guy who made us sing 2 songs....i can't remember his name he took over from Hans Hubler.....nice guy.

    The Ridlings ..Geff passed away about a year ago i'm good freinds with his son (Not a JW anymore) and went out with his daughter a few times many years ago.

    Not sure were the Kramers are now.

    I'm in Auckland NZ

    I remember him. Was a nice CO. We had him as CO in the early 80`s. Loved his manner and was always good to me. I was in my late teens then.

    I remember someone telling the story of him living in. Flat on the side o. KH which had a good library and he would read a lot of the old books and mag`s

    He came to see it was all. Lie and left.

    That's all I know.

    I am from Melbourne and know a lot of the names around he northern part of Melb.

    We got out in bout 2009. Was in for bout 25 years. Give or take!

    Hans Hubler conducted my pioneer school, along with Ted Bromich. Hans told someone he liked pavlova, so every day for the entire week people bought pavlova for lunch. I think he only ate it on the first couple of days before he got sick of it.
