fondmemories Lorna of our marching and swimming days. The time we got locked in the pool complex in Waitara and had to climb the fence to get out. Lots of laughs to this day about this We shared Ann and Shane along with the kids and great grandchildren. Rest in peace with Les and say "hi" to John.I will miss those Happy Birthday songs, always on the right day Jo.

Dear Lorna, this is just so sad to read you have passed away today, you were such a special lady who thoroughly enjoyed coming along to the New Plymouth Stroke Support Trust socials and going on the bus trips, you will be missed so much honey. Rest in Peace now and on behalf of our organisation, I would like to send our deepest sympathy to you all the family.
