Mary-Anne, just happened to see this & so pleased I did so that I knew. I am so sorry to read of your dad´s passing. I was just thinking of him a week or so ago. I have many memories of your dad & your mum. Your dad pulling out a big pot & saying he was going to cook us in it in those days it was ok Riding in the back of the Airest truck. Running dessert over that mum had brought home from work, pavlova. Trips to Cornwallis, the veggie garden at the back of your house...sending much aroha & strength to you at this very sad time.
