On behalf of the White family from Kaitaia when the Achterstraat family were farming at Umawera, I send our love. Your mother was a loving, patient, caring lady (especially when it came to Peter + I). May you all find strength and comfort at this time of mixed emotions.
Love you all And pray for you . She’s in heaven with her Lord ! But you’ve lost your mother and that hurts.
