    Dear Denise and Family, I know how different it is to say goodbye. I was so sorry to see of your loss of your Dear John. May memories of your times together ease the ache in your heart. words don’t seem to say enough. But we hope, in some small way, they may help to ease the pain you are feeling. love from Helen and Alan.

    Nudda,, I never heard you say a bad word about anyone. Always positive, always smiling, always caring. You were one of the first whanau we had when we moved to Kaponga. I never pictured Shenan and his mates without you. The years may have passed but the loving impact you had never changed. Every time I saw you over the years, always the same warm heart greeted me. Even last week during the sad time of Aunties tangi. I can only imagine the loss Denise, Jennifer and whanau are feeling right now and my love and condolences to you all. Until we meet again, I’ll look forward to seeing your smile again. Rest in peace and light.
