So very sorry for your loss - many memories from my childhood of Nik and Mara and Milina wines - from helping pick grapes to taking the advocate over and being given some blackberry nip. Beautiful family xxx love Janene West-Hill
Nick may you rest in peace as you justly deserve. I have fond memories of years past sharing your hospitality with your family when in Maungatapere. Rest In Peace.
A sad farewell to a fine man! I have very special memories of time spent with the family at the vineyard. Amazing hospitality, kindness and joy. Nick and Mara fostered a lovely family, gave wonderful support to their Baba and Dida and all I have are lovely memories of time spent in their company. Rest in peace Nick as you reconnect with Mara. And strength to all those left behind. Love from Stephen.
