My Sincere condolences to the family Aunty Betty you were born when life was tough yet you lived a full life surrounded by a very caring family. You had a very special gift of hospitality and made everyone feel special and welcome. I really enjoyed our catch ups on the few occasions I visited Invercargill but also vividly remember a a child we would all arrive at Green Island in Dunedin. You were a very special lady and I'm sorry I can't be there for your final farewell. Rest in Peace.

I am very sorry to hear of auntie Betty's passing. I valued the chances we had to spend time with her when I was in New Zealand. She was always warm, welcoming and interested in what was happening. My condolences to all the family for the loss.

Very sad to read that Aunty Betty has passed away. I will remember her as a lady who seemed to have a permanent lovely smile. Allan (Worm) had a deep respect and admiration for her. Sadly I won't be able to attend her farewell but will watch online and will raise a cold one to her memory. Sending my condolences and love to you all.
