Uncle Gordon was a fantastic person. I tried to visit at Wilson St around Christmas but now realise he was staying with Sharon. So sorry to have missed this last chance and also so sorry he has passed. I really wanted to be back in Hawera to pay tribute at the funeral and to catch up with with all the cousins. Unfortunately I was in Middlemore Hospital on the day he passed and only got home yesterday so travel was not possible. Love and best wishes. Lindsay
