Posted 11 July 2026

Ricky and Judy, Mandy and Tony, Michelle and Paul, and our families, wish to thank everyone for your acts of kindness shown following Dad's passing - for the beautiful cards, flowers, baking, phone calls, and especially the comforting hugs. Thanks also to everyone who attended Dad's funeral. Your love and support have been a great source of strength during this difficult time. A special thank you to the doctors and nurses at Methven Medical Centre, Methven Central and Millstream. Your care, compassion and kindness made Dad's last week's comfortable and dignified. We will be forever grateful. Thank you also to Paterson's Funeral Services for your care of Dad and for the support and guidance you extended to us at a sad time. Please accept this notice as our personal thanks to you all.
