Good morning, I was sorry to hear of your mothers passing away. Ross and I did our apprenticeship's together. I stayed with them to do one of my exams, your Mum and Ross used to visit us in Papamoa. She was a good scout, my condolences to you all. Alistair

So sorry to hear of your lovely Mum's passing. I remember her and your Dad wheeling their piano down the road to our house at 25 Seddon Crescent and a party took place that night. Your Mum and Dad were such fun and came to many gatherings at our house. I was also sorry to hear of Chrissys passing as he and I were the same age and often played together at No.25. My Mum and Dad have also passed on many years ago and I often wish they were still here. Kindest regards and sympathy to you all. Sandra
