I am sorry to read of the passing of Alison, one of my precious nine cousins. I have letters - 1989 and 1995 - from Alison, sent to my late mother Faeria in Palmerston North. My sister Pamela remembers Alison well, and my late brother Patrick and his wife Sue had contact with Alison when living in Auckland. With sincere condolences and best wishes to you all, Andrew, David, Margaret, Libby, and extended family.

Rest in Peace dear Alison. Remembered with much affection from musical days at Westlake Girls - quite some time back now. My condolences to Margaret and the family.
