My love and prayer reach out to all the Hoffmann family as you farewell your wonderful father and grandfather, Frank, at this time. I particularly am thinking of you, Gerard and Veronica whom I taught back in the 1960's. I hope you have done well with your lives as you both had great potential at that time. Your Dad was very much appreciated by our Sisters of Our Lady of the Missions at St Mary's Papakura over the early years of its foundation. His quiet, professional and intelligent guidance at PTA meetings and his love of good education was a great contribution to the school's ongoing growth. and success. I have also appreciated Frank's urgent, learned writing in TUI MOTU over recent years. He has left a wonderful legacy in you his family and in his care and love for our precious Earth environment. May Frank rest in peace and know eternally the compassion and love of the Source of Life.
Loving Sympathy from Sister Mary Maitland RNDM, Whangarei. (aka Sister M Barbara).
