In Loving Memory of Thelma White
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Thelma White, on 12 October 2024. She passed away peacefully surrounded by her immediate family. Thelma was a loving and devoted mother, grandmother and friend, whose kindness strength, and wisdom touched the lives of everyone she met.
Thelma aged 85 years, spent a significant proportion of her life on the farm and over the years enjoyed the passions of golf, Tai Chi, playing guitar, gardening, nature and tramping the many trails of NZ. She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Beloved mother of Judi, Suzie, Jacqui, Craig (deceased) and Keith. Wife of late husband Norman. Grandmother to Holly, Brooke, Matthew, Luke, Amy, Danyon and Crystal. Great grandmother to Fletcher, Demi, Dior, Dustin, Grayson and great friend to many.
The family will hold a private cremation. A celebration of life for close friends and family will be held at some stage in the future. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Cancer Society in her memory.
Our hearts are forever grateful for the time we had with her.
Rest in peace, our dear Mum.
