Our beautiful mother. Words will never begin to express the profound sense of loss we feel. Nothing will ever be the same again but I can hear you say: such is life and we must go on. My sisters and I are blessed to have such a wonderful, strong and loving mother and for this I am humbly grateful. So sleep peacefully Mum... we will see you in our dreams. xxx

To Dear Judy,

I am deeply saddened to learn of your passing. I remember fondly the time I spent with you and your girls, when I used to babysit them when you lived in Tennyson Ave. Now, a lifetime has passed between us. Travel well, I will continue to remember your quiet reserve and large smile. You, as with all of your family Judy remain steadfast in all of the 'Taylor's' hearts. Kim xxxx

Dearest Jude we all know how special you are, your respectful gentle manner, your quick smile, wisdom thoughtfully offered, lack of judgement and generous heart. I am sorry I was unable to come and say a final farewell, you left us all so suddenly. But I don't need to say good-bye Jude because you will never leave my thoughts. I will miss you always being there for me when I come home, I will miss our cups of tea, dinner, chin-wags and your wise advice. Your legacy left behind is a fine one in your strong beautiful daughters and Max, your little man. Thank you my dear cousin for being a big part of my life you will be missed very very much. I love you.

My beautiful gentle quietly spoken cousin Judy. So sorry to hear about your passing. No longer will I see u passing by working in the kitchen at the marae or sitting in the wharepuni at our hui. No longer will I hear u ask, how are the kids? My heart weeps to know I will never see u or hear yr voice again in this life. Now you are an angel in heaven no longer suffering with illness. You are so blessed to be in the presence of our whanaunga who have passed before us and they will welcome you with open arms! You're home now cousin.
