Tributes

We had the privilege of meeting Trevor and Hazel just before we left New Zealand in 2023. It was so special to see Wendy and her parents in their home, a wonderful, welcoming trio with singing every evening, Trevor's passion for lawn bowls and old hobby of wood turning. Even though we never made it into the bowling club (that darn pin number, Trev!), we're so grateful we got to sped a little bit of time with him, and to get to know Wendy's lovely dad. Sending lots of love to Hazel and Wendy, all the way from Scotland xx
