TRIBUTES

Mary Gow
We remember Betty with much fondness. She was the one who welcomed us to St Johns in 2006 when we arrived from Brussels to live in Paekakariki. Her memory was amazing – even last year in December she asked me about my concerts in Brussels.
Always interested is our activities.
An amazing woman and always remembered. RIP Betty.
Mary Gow and Tony Fuell.
