Am very sorry to hear that Val has passed, though we had not met, we have emailed about our Standing family connections. Thinking of you all,
Anne Standing and all of the Standing Families that descended from Herbert Standing that went to Northland from Inglewood in the early 1900's.

A good family friend and genealogy colleague of Dennis & (Dorothy Wood nee Macdonald). It was always good catching up with Val who we shared lots of family stories with.

Condolences to the Macdonald family on your Mum's passing. Scott, I know Mike Watson would have been in touch if not for his premature demise. As an old Inglewood man, just acknowledging Val's connection down here. Kind regards - Peter Hall
