Peacefully, aged 95, on January 5, 2026, at Havelock North. Much-loved mother, mother-in-law, grandmother and great-grandmother of Stephen, Aimee, Hannah and Lucy; Simon, Sandy, Dan, Sammie, Lily and Archie; and Sara, Andrew, Ben, James and Luke. A trailblazer who loved life, travel, reading and learning, but above all her family. You leave a great hole in our lives, but we are richer for having had you in ours.
