Tributes

 

Terry & Jan Baker

Our very sincere sympathy to all of Isobel’s wide whanau.
Such a get up and go person , we knew her
for the last few decades , through other friends, Toogoods & Jeff King
Jeff and his late wife Win new her from their time in Wellington in the ‘80s and they have kept in touch ever since.
We missed her popping up all over Wellington as she lived her very busy calender and always had to stop for a good natter.
She visited us, at our Eketahuna cottage but didnt appreciate a rodent in the garden!!!
Regret that we wont be able to get to St Johns tomorrow but will follow on line.
A great, busy life-well lived
Regards

My deepest condolences to Izzy’s family.
I first met Izzy when I started work at the age of 17 at ANZ Bank, The Terrace Branch in Nov 1987.
She was always such fun to work with! and we’ve kept in touch over the years.
I’m sorry I can’t be at the Church this morning but will be there online.
Love
Kim Goodin and family. xx

My condolences go to Isobel’s family. I knew her for over 40 years as a colleague at ANZ Bank, and at subsequent retired ANZ staff lunches. She was well known and always interested in people she met by making conversation and asking after our families. Isobel will be missed.

Kia Ora,
My husband Hamish McKay and I just wanted to say how much we will miss our fabulous catch up chats with Isobel when we went to visit my Father at Rita Angus. Isobel was so engaged in the world and so wonderfully curious still, it was an absolute highlight chatting with her.
We were so saddened to hear of her death, she was a joy and will be missed by many I’m sure.
All our very best to you all.
Kindest regards,
Anna.

 

Tracey and Dave Dornan Brian Petherick

RIL Izzy, we’ll miss you more than you know.
All our love,
Tracey, Dave, Brian, Corey and Tayla xxoo
