Dear John, Marc, Laura and family . We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Eila. We have very fond memories of living in the flat at Ngake Street and had kept in touch ever since by annual email and saw John and Eila when we returned to NZ in 2008.

My sincere condolences. John and Elia taught me to play bridge at Akarana in the 70s. I have a lot to thank them for. I´ve gone on to have a very successful bridge career including representing Britain in Europe. My thoughts are with you at this sad time.

Condolences to the immediate family from her
grand-nephew. I reconnected with her over the past several months but she was an inspiration. Generous with her time she's been immensely helpful to research our shared family history.
