Thinking of you all at this sad time 🥰
Aunty Mavis, Thank you for all the wonderful memories. On our family holidays to Invercargill when I was younger, we always used to visit and hang out. In particular, I remember the delicious whitebait fritters that you used to make. They were a such delicacy and there was always a white-baiting story to be told. And, of course, there was always delicious homemade baking in the tins. You were such a kind and gentle soul who always took care of others before yourself. I always used to think you would have made a wonderful nurse. You will be sadly missed by all those that loved you. I'm sure you are now reunited and in the loving arms of Uncle Bob. RIP Aunty Mavis x Sincere condolences to David, Diane, Brian, Paulina and families. We are thinking of you at this sad time and sending our love and hugs. Debbie, David, Emma and Jacob xoxo
