| | Portrayal of Donald unrecognisable, says friend - 22 Nov 2005 - Rod Donald, 1957-2005 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) |
 | | A cross between Kermit the Frog and Mother Teresa is how Rod Donald has been portrayed since his sudden death two weeks ago, a close friend and colleague said during his memorial service yesterday. |
 | | Catherine Delahunty, a Green Party member, said those who knew Mr Donald well were struggling to recognise him from the posthumous descriptions. |
 | | More than 400 people who crowded into Parliament's old Legislative Council Chamber and Grand Hall to pay tribute to Mr Donald heard about the many facets of his life - electoral reformer, environmentalist, fair trade promoter, father, friend, partner, humanitarian. |
