So sorry for your family's loss. Both she and her late husband were great people. As far as I'm aware your late father was kind enough to visit my grandmother when we lost our young cousin as a child. Such a very caring couple. Condolences to you all.

Glen Rowling was a wonderful woman... strong, capable, kind, funny. She worked tirelessly for Labour over the years I knew her and worked alongside her and Rex in Nelson. I loved your wicked laugh Glen and that you were so down to earth despite your long history with Labour in NZ.

I first met Lady Glen at the NZ Embassy in Washington DC in the mid 80´s. We continued our friendship when she moved to The Wood area and I will miss her lovely personality.
