I moved next door to the Bennetts four years ago. Rosemary welcomed me to the neighbourhood on my first day with some of her delicious baking. Since then we've enjoyed many chats and continued to exchange garden produce and preserves.
I'm going to miss my wonderful neighbour.
May she rest in peace.
Deepest condolences to Gary, Barbara and Deborah.

Deeply sorry to hear of Rosemary's passing. She was a beautiful lady. I always admired her clean shiny windows at the Maungatautari Schoolhouse.
Sincere condolences to Gary and the girls.
Love, Beth and Denis Raines

Dear Uncle Gary and Cousin Deborah and Barbara. I'm so sad to hear today, that Aunty Rosemary died on Tuesday. I will always remember her energy and - wow - those amazing legs! I love the stories of her looking after Dad (the Late, dearly loved and missed, Danny Clements), when they were kids. I believe she did eventually recover from him kicking her in the shins, when she was trying to get him on the school bus! You've lost an incredible wife and mother; and many of us, a vibrant Aunt. My deepest condolences, sympathy, and love to you all. Your niece and cousin, Leonie Shorter
