LARKIN, Mary. On 1 August 2016 suddenly and peacefully at North Shore Hospital. Cherished mother of Sharon, Pauline and Jennifer, loved mother-in-law of Peter and Denis. Adored and treasured grandmother of Michael, Paul, Sarah and Daniel. You have always been such an inspiration and role model to us all and we will miss you so much. Knowing that you are now with dad makes it easier for us to bear. A service to celebrate mum's life will be held on Friday 5 August 2016 1pm at North Shore Memorial Park Chapel, 235 Schnapper Rock Road, Albany.
