Vincent MOLLOY Obituary

MOLLOY, Vincent Michael. Born 24th May 1946. Passed away on Sunday 28 June 2020 at Waitakere Hospital. Shirley and family would firstly like to thank all of the doctors and nurses that looked after Vincent from Auckland City Hospital and Waitakere. Husband to Shirley, Father to David and Fiona, Trudy and Francisco, Lisa, Andrew (AJ) and Vicki. Amazing and much loved Grandfather to Ella, Hunter, Bailey, Claudia, Jasmine, Leah and Levi. Vince, Dad, Grandad we thank you for everything you have done for us all. The hard work, the sacrifices made along the way, the amazing adventures you took us all on, we will never forget the journeys we all shared. From far up North at Tapuaetahi waterskiing, fishing and diving, to the Mighty Maunga Of Ruapehu where the adventures would continue until the last run was made and we would all sit back after a hard day on the hill and watch the sun head down over Mount Taranaki. All these special times and adventures we all shared have helped shape us all into who we are today, thank you for teaching us your strong family values of honesty, respect, staying and working together as a family and most of all how to love. Enjoy the last run Dad!! May you now rest in peace. Vincent's Life will be celebrated at Saint Joseph's Catholic Church 470 Great North Road, Grey Lynn, Auckland 1021 on Saturday 4th July 2020 at 10:45a.m. Followed by a private cremation. Following the service everyone is welcome for food and refreshments at New Lynn R.S.A 2 Veronica Street, New Lynn, Auckland 0600. In preference to floral tributes a memorial donation may be made to the order of St John.

To Shirley and the Molloy Families our thoughts are with you at this sad time and words cannot convey the sadness we feel at the loss of our old Mate Vince. We are thankful we were able to share in his life and the memories will remain with us forever. New Years Eve in particular have never been the same. Thanks for the support when it was needed and the laughter that brightened the spirits.

May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. "Requiescat in Pace" Vincenzo

Sláinte!
Brian and Lyn O'Brien and families

MOLLOY, Vincent Michael (Vince). Passed away Sunday 28 June 2020. I was pleased to see you last Saturday in such good spirits. We had a great afternoon chatting and laughing together and I was looking forward to spending more time with you on Monday, but it was not to be. You were always a thorough gentleman, never hesitating to help those in need and the best friend anyone could wish for over the last 30 years. We will meet again one day but for now, goodbye my loyal friend. I will miss you. Rest in peace. Drago Stulich, Lyn and family.

MOLLOY, Vincent Michael (Vince). Our wonderful friend has gone and he has left a big hole in our lives. Whether it was skiing, tramping or climbing or meeting up each day at the gym, you enriched our lives with your trademark chuckle and wise humour. Vince, we were so lucky to have known you for over 45 years. It was a privilege. Fare thee well old friend. The Shumack Family
