Dear Helen,
It was lovely to have Robert back in our lives again through a close friend of his, after so many years of absence. Lovely to meet you as well.
Those last few years we had with him will be treasured for ever.
Love and our deepest condolences

A love a rum with the other partners of the bunch of nurses Helen trained with. A huge smile for everyone and a laugh that will never be forgotten. Bob was a gem that Helen grabbed and her own dad very much approved of. He fitted in the extended Whetton clan with humour and grace. Our love to Helen and her family from The Perales family of Waipu. RIP Bob we will surely miss you xx
