To aunty Rachel - such a 'go to her' person always had brilliant ideas, so passionate, boisterous and hard worker. You will be sadly missed by everyone and Otehi park will miss you the most! Always pottering about the place, from being a painter to a builder and even a plumber and I'm sure if she could she would have done electrical somewhere in there! To Trevor and the boys I am thinking of you guys, look after each other. Tino arohanui ki te whanau pani. Wendy xo

For our dear aunty — a vibrant, adventurous, young-at-heart aunt, grand-aunt and great-grand-aunt to many. She loved deeply, lived boldly, and treasured her family above all else. Like the flowers she adored, she brought colour, beauty, and joy wherever she went. Her radiant smile and infectious laugh could light up any room, and her kindness and passion for life touched everyone who knew her. Though she has left this world (her beloved husband Trevor and handsome sons Brendon and Spencer), her love will continue to bloom in our hearts forever. Rest peacefully, moe mai rā e whaea

Trevor, Brendan, Spencer. It breaks my heart that you've lost Rachel. Your dedication to her during illness is nothing but amazing. RIP my beautiful friend. To Audrey, Cathie, Tira, Marisa and the rest of Rachel’s siblings. Nga mihi aroha nui ki a koutou katoa.

RIP Rachel, time for you to rest lovely Lady, we had a few good laughs together. Our Condolences to Trevor Boys and Families.

A much loved and respected member of The Mairangi Bay Bowling Club. Rachel was such an inspiration with her positive attitude to everything. Her friendly disposition made her such great company at the club. Rest in peace Rachel.

Rachel you were a lady everyone knew and befriended. You were so stoic in your final journey that has come too soon. Rest in peace Rachel we will all remember you as a gifted bowler and wonderful friend. Thank you for being you. 😘
