Sending much love and sympathy to Sarah´s Family .
Sarah was so kind to me and my little girls when we arrived in Christchurch
and I was a young mother far away from my own family in Melbourne .
We lost touch when she moved to Nelson but I was delighted to catch up again a few years ago at Mollys 80 th .
I often think of her kindness when I make her delicious pumpkin soup and `Cowboy Coffee Cake".. and her grape hyacinths have featured in all my gardens .
Fond memories of her warmth and generosity .

Remembering Sarah - a warm and generous person... Remember me when I am gone away.
gone far away into the silent land.
Only remember me.

Dear all - a lovely and lovable person gone. I met Sarah after I married. She was one of my Brian's countless cousins; but then we sang Bach's B Minor Mass in the Dorian choir together, thus cementing one of life's slender but intangibly valuable friendships. My sympathy comes to you all, and love - Angela Caughey

Dear Peter, Belinda and Richard and your families. We are praying for God's comfort for you all. Sarah was a very important person in our lives for it was she who introduced our parents Richard and Naomi Caughey to each other after choir practice one night!!! We will always be grateful to her. With love from Rachel McQueen and Matt Caughey
