You did a terrific send off Les, we will catch up again in the near future.
To beautiful Sue. A very very special friend and gorgeous lady. So many laughs and fun times. A big hug to you from London. I will find a flower garden to sit in today… come and join me and we can giggle away like we do. Loads of love from Denise.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I have fond memories of time spent with you all in Waitangirua. Sue was a lovely, kind soul. My maiden name was Ferris.
Thank you Les for sharing the link for the service. How lovely to be part of the service of thanks for Sue's life and to see your girls and grandchildren - we've heard so many stories over the years. Well said all of you in honouring a special wife, mother and grandmother. There will be a huge hole in all of your lives that time will never heal over completely. Such is the impact one person can have on so many. Go well in the days and months ahead, there will be both tears and smiles as the memories of your times together come back to you all, and remember the words we were left with at the end of the service. An amazing tribute to an amazing and unique person. Our love and prayers go with you all.
