To our precious extended whanau we are saddened that we couldn’t be there with you today. Our heart mourns with yours, our love we send to you. We will be forever grateful for all Maude did for us over so many years. Our marathon card games, our lunches and dinners together, I even had the pleasure of working together catering for birthdays and weddings. Whatever we did there was so much laughter and joy. Maude treated me like a daughter and my girl like a granddaughter. Our lives were so blessed because you were a special part of it. Thank you so much from your Suzi and Ambers xxx.
