Hello, my name is Cindy Lou Edwards, I’m Sid Edwards (Jack’ brother) daughter. We say uncle Jack and Aunty Daphne on a number of occasion here and in NZ. Thanks to Lloyd I was able to stream the service and even saw a photo of dad ! He was always laughing and having a great time regardless of life’s ups and downs, same as dad. I’m taking some of that with me through life Thanks for a beautiful Maori service, it was truely inspirational xx

Popcorn was our hero. He was our inspiration for doing the right thing everyday. We will miss him sooo much, and we know he is now with his sons Nigel & Lloyd and our wonderful Nanna. We so desperately wanted to be there, but there wasn't enough time. We will light a candle tonight in your honour. Forever in our hearts. We love you soo much,. Lloyd, Renee, Tiraho, Aria.

I was so privileged to have met Jack, or how he was affectionally known as 'popcorn'. He had a great sense of humour and a cheeky smile. He was a talented artist and painted some amazing landscapes. Thank you for the times i did get to see you and I now wish you to rest peacefully and suffer no longer.
