My dear, dear Col, I will never forget my loving caring Friend. We both liked to play the pokies and one time after her illness was diagnosed, I took her to play the pokies. I had to leave her playing for a short time and when I came back she had won some money and was sharing it around. When I visited her in hospital although she didn't remember my name she knew the words of a song that came on. Love to all the Family.

Colleen we all missed your presence so much when you could no longer travel to Rotorua to visit us all. We will remember you with such beautiful thoughts of not only your beautiful smile and your image on the outside but your inner beauty and the kindness and love you shared with your Bray whanau on Tarewa Road, Rotorua.

Haeata, Jimmy and Aroha Bray

To Pete and whanau, Our thoughts and aroha are with you, Regards the Boniface family
