  1. I wish to pass on my condolences to the family of Edith Sim. Edith was a valued member of Inner Wheel. She supported her community in service as well as supporting Inner Wheel as the District Chairman for District NZ297 in 2010-2011. Edith will be remembered in friendship by Inner Wheel members throughout New Zealand. Edith has touched so many lives in service and friendship.

  2. As a member of IWNZ, I was a Ditstrict Chairman for NZ293 at the same time as Edith was Chairman for NZ297. I remember her as being a stately women with great knowledge of Inner Wheel and concern for the clubs in her district. Having also lost a parent this year I know that no matter how much you anticipate their passing it is still a time of much reflection and grieving. My thoughts and prayers are with all of the family as you navigate this new journey without your mother & grandmother. Joanne Gaudin Past President IWNZ
