Edwin (Russell):
On Sunday, April 23, 2023, peacefully at Nelson Hospital, aged 96 years. Loved husband of the late Deseree Brighouse (nee Morrison), adored father to Daryl, Paul (deceased), Deborah and Michael ,and their partners. Loved and loving grandfather and great-grandfather whose love will be missed deeply. In honour of our father and his wish for privacy at this time, an immediate family-only service then private cremation will take place this week. A full celebration of Russ and Des's life will be held at a later date with friends and family to acknowledge the love we had for both of them – and them for us. The family would like to acknowledge those angels otherwise known as caregivers at Summerset In The Sun Care Centre who made his life so much better each and every day. Also the amazing transitioning/hospice team at Nelson Hospital who managed those final days with such compassion, tender care, empathy and professionalism. Messages can be sent to the Brighouse Family, C/- Shone and Shirley, 164 Tahunanui Drive, Nelson 7011, or left online at www.shoneandshirley.com/tributes

just happened on this notice. My late husband Bert and I knew the Brighouse family many years ago due to Berts connection to the Classic yacht A18 Tawera and then subsequently Patio Bay, Waiheke Island. the trophy Russell donated to the Classic Yacht Assoc for a race to Patio Bay was a block off Tawera and is still raced for at the beginning of Dec each year. This race has grown so much that it is a must do for all members of CYA. Recent years have seen almost 300 people turn up for the BBQ around the house at Patio Bay with a lot staying overnight in the bay. Thank you Russell and Des for your friendship over so many years. Much love to all the family. RIP.
