John McKENZIE Obituary

Our condolences to Dot and family on the passing of Gavin. Sadly we did not know as were in the North Island over that time. A really good nice neighbour who will be missed. Rest in Peace Gavin.

Sending love to Dot and all others. May you rest in peace pop. Much love from your granddaughter Caitlyn. And three of your great granddaughters Rosalee, Scarlett and Payton and your great grandson Chad

Gavin was associated with the Winslade family iin Kelso over a long period of time, firstly with beekeeping and secondly as a loyal friend . I know he will be sadly missed by many friends and his family . Sending our deepest sympathy.
Sue OShea, ( Winslade).

Gavin was a great ideas man. I always enjoyed our conversations going back to when he and Milton started McKenzie Bee Lines to when he came back to South Canterbury and was playing with a few hives again. Condolences to family and friends.

Our condolences Dot and apologies for not being able to attend. A much loved man, that will be greatly missed. Our thoughts are with you all. Andrae & Rob. Elizabeth Gold (Kelso)

Gavin was the type of neighbour one could ask to borrow a tool from, or to cut a piece of wood for you, always with a smile. Kindest regards Dot. Sue Thomassen

A life well lived and lived well. We have so many happy family memories, especially when you had to tow our car out, after my Mum parked it deep into the hedge at Bathgates road !! Rest in Peace Gavin. Love to all family and friends. From Bill and Gill Hewson - Seabird Coast, Kaiaua.

I really enjoyed Gavin's company, his conversation and wisdom, he will be missed.
