Dearest Chris, Emma and Skyla
Sending all my love to you at this very sad time as you farewell Tracey. I remember first meeting you at the Selwyn house hockey turf on a wintry Christchurch morning after you had arrived from Wellington. Our family loved staying with you at Akaroa in your cottage and I still have one of the painted rocks from our weekend together in Geraldine. I wish time had been kinder for us all to see more of one another. Sadly I will still be in Australia on Sunday and not able at attend Tracey´s formal farewell. I will be thinking of you all and send all my love always .
