To John, and the Spinks Whanau

So sorry to hear of Shelley's tragic passing.
My sincere condolences to you during this difficult time.

Shelley was one of my friends from Opoutere School. In our age group, I remember Shelley was the fastest runner. I know this because Shelley would cross the finish line first before me! Shelley also introduced me to the peacocks on the farm in Opoutere, and gave me one of their feathers. I kept this feather until I moved south (in the early 80's).

Thank you Shelley for being a kind, generous and thoughtful friend.


Warmest regards
Maryanne
