I wish to add my condolences on the passing of Margaret, a lady that I have fond memories of as a child visiting the farm and visiting some of the Nelson cousins, in later life there is a big gap but has we get older we realise that family is important and once I started visiting again it was a pleasure and Margret was always keen to give us a cup of tea, over the years have had some catch ups with Liz and Tony, and recently Andrew and Hilary, and Margaret always kept us up to date with family comings and goings.
I believe she is the last cousin of my fathers generation to pass so they will be catching up now, all the best to Andrew, Liz and Juliet and I will catch up in the near future, luckily for me I visited Margaret at the rest home back in May and it was good to catch up with her.
Thinking of you all, from the West Coast cousin,
Matthew and Rose Fairmaid.
