Rowdy,Brian,Garry Brendon and families.
I am so sorry to hear that you have lost your precious wife,mum and grandmother.
I have fond memories of growing up next door at Hally Tce.
She was an inspiration for me and gave me great tips and advice when I started play hockey on the field beside the house.
I was in awe when watching her make icing flower and creating and icing amazing wedding cake for exciting brides around Temuka.
She had a beaming smile, infectious laugh and was always happy to see you.
I am sorry I won't be there to celebrate her life on Tuesday
Please take care of each at this difficult time.

Rowdy, Garry, Brian, Brendan and Families,
My deepest condolences on the passing of Topsy - my thoughts are with you at this sad time.
I'll always remember her with a smile on her face and there willing to lend a hand with any situation. Most of all, I remember her keeping an eye on Nana when she lived in Temuka, especially on Saturday nights after church, her calling into Nana's for a "wee brandy" and Nana had a "wee gin."
Once again my thoughts are with you all.
Lots of love, Heather Maguire.

We were saddened to hear of Margie's passing. Our thoughts are with Rowdy, Gutsy, Slim, Brendan and their families at this very sad time. I will miss my chats in the office when I call in on my visits, it won't be the same. Skippy & Michelle.
