Our thoughts are with you all at this sad time. Your mum was truly "Salt of the Earth" - humble, hard working, kind and great fun. Although I haven't seen her for a long time I have special memories from my teenage years of a quietly supportive wife and mum who seemed to always ahave a smile and encouraging word. She was a Proverbs 31:10-31 lady... "her children rise up and call her blessed". The great comfort that you can lean on is that she is celebrating "the real thing" today - being in the presence of our God and Saviour and united with your beloved father!
With much love, Kathy and Murray

To all the family of dear rebe, please accept my sincere condolences. My memories of your darling mum are ones of such a kind, joyous and welcoming lady. My days at the auckland city mission with roy and rebe at the helm, were some of my happiest times at church, their loving, practical Christian kindness that I and many experienced, will never ever be forgotten. I've never found a church or pair to match 'em. Loving thoughts to you all, carolyn Perrone aka CAB xx
