Granny today we said our final goodbye. I want to say thank you for accepting myself & my kids into your life & family. For being the best Granny I could ever have asked for, for myself & them. The time you lived with us we will forever hold deep in out hearts. Thank you for being the best second mum to the boys. You & Pop mean everything to them. I know you will be with Sam when she takes her flight to Canada, the many conversations you had together she will take with her forever. We love you so much Granny & will miss you until we meet again ❤️ Matt, Reagan, Jean & Sam
Rest in peace Nana, we are already greatly missed. I’m so pleased our boys got to spend time with you. All our love Rachel, Kieran, Travis, Jacob and Lachie.
I have fond memories of Maureen who opened her home and family life, to me during teenage years growing up in New Plymouth. Rest in peace now dear lady.
Nana I will miss you coming to the Sunny Coast for your holidays and talking about the All Blacks and Naki rugby games with me. Go the Breakers! Thankyou for being a great Nana. Rest in peace. Love Mitch
Nana, Rest in peace, I will always remember the funny and amazing times we got to share and so happy you got to come to europe and visit some countries you always wanted to visit. You were an amazing grandma and we are super lucky we had you in our lives. The referees are always wrong and despite the All Blacks being almost unbeatable in the 2000's they would lose one game and all of a sudden be "useless". We will all miss you alot but never be out of our memories. Love always Ben
Nana, rest in peace. I will be thinking of you everyday. I have great memories of you coming to Australia on your holidays. I enjoyed spending time with you and taking you out to your favourite places. Missing you xx
Rest in peace Mum, we are missing you already. Thank you for being a fabulous Mum and for all you have done for me and my family. I will never forget all the memories we have together. Love you, Anthea, Warren and family xxxx.
Rest in peace Nana. I will be thinking of you everyday and all the nice memories we had together. I will always remember our trip to Europe and our mutual love of the colour green. Thank you for being my cheeky and bossy nana. Miss you and love you lots. Love always, Millie
Am sorry to hear of yours mums passing. Have very fond memories of Maureen and mum (Shirley Livingstone) spending time together especially Sundays for fish & chips and catch up. Pleased you all got to say your goodbyes recently.
Rest in peace Mum, you have been a fantastic Mum, mother in law and Nana to me, Jill, Victoria, Ben and Millie. We love you very much and already miss you. I will never forget the memories we have shared and the ongoing support and love you have provided. I have special memories of our travels to Europe and the UK in 2018 and the many sporting debates we have had over the years. Love Chris, Jill, Victoria, Ben and Millie.
