Tributes

To Tracey and family, thinking of you at this sad time. I remember on Friday nights when I traveled from Hawera back to Manaia with your Mum and Jean Conway after work, it was always a happy commute. You were a loving and caring daughter Tracey, so hold onto all those good memories and they will keep her close to your heart ♥

Dear Tracey and family, I'm very sorry to read this. I was just talking to Val only a few weeks ago when visiting Nana (Bev Thomas). Her and Nana had great chats sitting out on the couch and down at the dinner table. I will miss seeing her welcoming smile on my visits. Thinking of you at this sad time. Amanda and the Peters family. xox

Amanda Moody (nee Peters)
