Gone but not forgotten π· Tom is now with Marie together again. The beautiful and kind hearted couple. I met them 33 years ago with my dear friend Justine staying on their farm for a few weeks. They took us around North Island and we all had the best time. I also met their sons who are beautiful people like them too. Thanks for memories Tom and Marie. π·π· Hugs for Ian and Grant. Love from Leisa
Tom and Marie were our neighbours at the top of Durham Road for, maybe more than 60 years. We were all part of the Durham Rd family but there was a little group within that who shared farm activities such as haymaking. Tom once built a substantial playhouse for us kids, and delivered it overnight one Christmas (at least, that's how I remember it). He was a wonderful, kind, caring man. I treasure my memories of him, including at his home in Inglewood and these last years, in Marinoto.
