Tributes
To Josephine and all your family, our deepest sympathy to you all in your sad loss of your Mum and Nana, a lovely lady at rest. Memories are wonderful treasure these. Have just watched the service a lovely tribute. Sorry we couldn’t have been with you but Keith is now an amputee so makes going out a little difficult. Loving thoughts to you all. Keith and Joy Hosking
My deepest sympathy to the family. I always enjoyed our catch-ups for lunch when she was in Stratford. She was a very interesting person to talk to and the accent made it more so. She was a very nice person. Thinking of you all at this time
I met Jeanne at the local Westown Move It or Lose It fitness group several years ago. She was a lovely lady and I missed our friendly chats when she moved to Tauranga. My sincere condolences to all her family.
