I have known Margy for many years, both of us being from Hokitika. We would meet every June, for my birthday and a group of ex-Hokitika ladies and partners would meet for a coffee and catchup. Yes she was the life of the party and no doubt her family will miss her, reminisce the good times, my thoughts are with you all.

Colin, Sarah and Joan. We are so very sorry for the passing of your mum. Aunty Margaret was full of life and could always make you laugh, you never knew what she would do next. She was the life of the party. There is now a missing part in our lives that will never be filled. She will never be forgotten.

Colin and family. We were so sorry to learn Margaret had passed away. She was a lovely lady. We only get one Mum and it is a huge loss when they leave us. You will have many years of lovely memories to help you through the sad days.
Sending love to you all.
