Our incredible "Doyen of Display" how I will miss you I dont know what to do with all the things that are a mystery to me.It was so easy to just put things in your hands.You always knew what to do with whatever.For all the hours you put into the job at the hospice shop you gave it your all and made it a much better place and allowed us to surpass our targets month after month.I will miss you but not as much as Jess will.You were her rock.My deepest sympathy to your family only hope the shock of your death will ease with time Again I will miss you so much.RIP June

Pete and family, please accept our sincere sympathies. We remember Sandra as someone fiercely committed to our organization and the work we do across our communities. She was a forthright, determined and loyal part of our Westown HospiceShop and has left an indelible mark on what it has now become. Sandra held no fear of challenging something she didn't feel was right and then pushing to get it fixed. Our staff and volunteers will hold dear these memories. Kindest regards to you all Paul Lamb CEO Hospice Taranaki Inc

Thinking of the Lewis family during this very difficult time. While we never got to meet Sandra, the legacy that she has passed on is so evident through the compassion and community that the Lewis family has shown. We love Tammy so much and are so devastated for family and friends that lost such a stalwart in the community.

Sandra my dear sister you left us too soon. You will always be in our hearts. Your brother Linley and sister-in-law Tuk Page. We are thinking of all the family at this saddest of times. Love Linley and Tuk PS I will miss our two-hour phone conversations. That's a small joke, Peter. I will miss Sandra in every way.

Our hearts go out to Pete, Tammy and Stacey. We are still in shock, even though there was a distance between us. I visited the family 4 times and truly enjoyed myself with Sandra and family, she was so talented
