SWABY, Ronald Denis. In Loving Memory of Our Dear Ronald Denis Swaby. It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share the sad news of the passing of our dear brother, brother-in-law, Uncle, and special friend Ron Swaby on Tuesday 25th August 2026 aged 84 yrs Loved son of Les and Adele, loved brother to Jeff, Brian, Russ, Jenny and Helen, brother-in-law to Melinda, Vicky and Rob and Uncle to all his nieces and nephews (all in Australia), a very special friend to Terry and Debbie and many more of his valued friends and workmates in New Zealand. Words can never truly express the sadness we feel at having to say goodbye to someone who meant so much to so many. Ron was a very special person ??" someone whose friendship was treasured and whose presence brought warmth and laughter for those fortunate enough to know him. We will remember Ron for the wonderful memories we shared, the laughter, the conversations, and the good times. Ron will never be truly gone. He will remain in the stories we tell, the memories that make us smile through our tears, and in the little moments that unexpectedly remind us of him. Although our hearts are broken by his passing, we will carry his memory with us always. Rest peacefully Ron, you were loved more than you could ever have known, you will be missed more than words can say, and you will never, ever be forgotten. Until we meet again Forever loved Forever remembered.
