A beautiful, giving and stoic friend whom has touched the lives and hearts of many. So privileged to have known you Rose. A fabulous part of our netball team in the early days of Ngongotaha Neball, a key part of our Electorate Office team when we worked together, a fabulous tennis player and coordinator for the Scion Business House Team and I know of many other interests and community organisations you were involved in.
