Diana BRINKHURST Obituary

BRINKHURST,
Diana Audrey Isabel:
On Saturday, May 8, 2021 at Summerset in the Sun, aged 90 years. Dearly loved wife of the late Rex for 68 wonderful years. Much loved mother and mother-in-law of Stephen and Sandra, Therese and Richard, Sally and Paul, and Diana and Mark, and her 11 grandchildren and 9 great-grandchildren. We will gather to farewell Diana on Monday, May 10, 2021 at 11.00am at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, Songer Street, Stoke, Nelson, followed by private cremation at Wakapuaka Crematorium. We would like to thank Dr. Mike Mawdsley, Nelson Hospital, their wonderful friend and neighbour, Wendy and the amazing staff at Summerset in the Sun for their excellent care and attention of Diana. In lieu of flowers, donations to St John Ambulance would be greatly appreciated.

So sorry to hear. Rex and Diana were our wonderful neighbours when we first moved to Nelson in 1994. They added brightness and friendship to our lives.
