Weak keep I think there is just sufficient WP:NEXIST to get over the WP:GNG line. Aoziwe (talk) 12:23, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Has held very prominent business roles and sufficient reliable sources to establish notability. The Drover's Wife (talk) 09:09, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. I was already to go all-in on this one, but a lot of the apparent indicators are a bit less impressive than they first seem. The SMH obit is good, but written by his sons; the article said he was president of the NRMA (a very notable position), but he was actually chairman (a much less public role); etc. Ultimately, though, they are significant roles; this NLA interview is also good.

Keep Seems a prominent enough businessman. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 19:44, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As head of the NRMA he was part of the demutualisation of the organisation which was controversial and split insurance and road services. The chairman was the public face and I don't believe there was a seperate president. The obit was written by his nephews not sons as he had none. One of those sons is now head of the family company and is currently facing an AfD. This isn't a question of inherited notability in the Wikipedia sense but a story of generations of a notable business, community, sporting and philanthropic family. It would be helpful if those commenting had some knowledge of what they are commenting on. Castlemate (talk) 20:33, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- a nn businessperson; neither the business nor the philanthropic activities rise to the level of encyclopedia notability. Sourcing is insufficient for standalone notability. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:20, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
