Dulcie Augusta Rachel Paterson

Dear Rhonda, Paul, Glenys, Bazil and families

We're sending much love to you all as you gather to remember your wonderful Mum.

Auntie Dulcie was such a special person. You'll miss her.

We hope to join the service on Wednesday as you celebrate her life.

With much love from
Brenton and Jo

Our deepest sympathy to Dulcie's family. I have some lovely memories of happy times from when I was a member of the Wendonside WDFF - a lovely lady.
We're so sorry we won't be able to attend her service, but our thoughts are with you.
Kindest Regards,
Shona & Norman Welsh

In the earliest years of my life our family was welcomed into the lives of "Uncle Ron and Auntie Dulcie", Rhonda, Paul, Glenys & Basil.
Together with Uncle Ron, Auntie Dulcie shared her heart, home & humour with such a gift of hospitality we never wanted to leave.
Our times together at Moonlight and Te Anau leave memories indelibly etched across my life as only God can do as He weaves the threads of one life into the threads of another and creates a tapestry, rich and beautiful to admire and experience..
I thank God for the life of this extraordinary woman whose love leaves mine so blessed while longing for the reunion to come - which those who have gone before (like my Dad, Ian) can now enjoy.

Dear Rhonda, Paul, Glenys, Basil and all the family I am so sorry that we no longer have your mother's infectious smile and energy to lighten us but I am grateful for her long and fruitful life. I wish I could be with you on Wednesday but we will be joining you from the other side of the world via the link.

it was such a treat to speak with her that last Saturday morning and to experience her love and warmth at the ripe age of 95. She has left you a precious heritage. For now let's give her into God's hands. Be comforted that she will be safe there. Blessings John Griffiths

All things work together Ro8-28 one of Dulcie's favorite verses. We werecertainly blessed to have had the blessing to have Dulcie as a treasured friend. Will miss her greatly . Terribly sorry that I cannot be at the Service . God bless you all !

Dear Ron and Dulcie's family
We were sad to hear of Dulcie's passing.
Be comforted knowing that Dulcie touched many families over a very full life. She and Ron were a great influence in the lives of many young people as well and their hospitality was legendary.
Our love and blessing to you all as you grieve as well as celebrate a life well lived.
We are sorry that we cannot attend the service at Calvin.

Dear Rhonda, Glenys, Paul and Basil
I have been reflecting on all the love and happy times we had at moonlight when we were growing up. It was always a treat being able to escape town life and appreciate the rural community that etched it's memories into my life. Love to you all Maree Paterson

To Dulcie's family,
Our sympathies on the recent passing of Dulcie. We are sad we cannot attend the service in person but want to pass on our love and prayers at this time. I have wonderful memories of Dulcie (my aunt) and was fortunate enough to visit her at her home in our last visit to Southland.

Love Heather and Wayne Parker

Dear Dulcie and Ron's family, We send our condolences to you all on this day. We adored Dulcie and had a wonderful chat with her on her 95th birthday which was so special. She told us that she was in the departure lounge waiting for God! She was bright as a button, making jokes and laughing. It was quite a shock to receive the news that she had passed away. She will always have a special place in our hearts and our childrens' hearts. We were sad that we could not be able to come to the funeral but watching it on line felt as though we were there. Sending all our love and blessings, from Tom and Norma Francis and families xxx

Dear Rhonda, Paul, Glenys, Basil and whanau,
Watched the livestream and we were thinking of you as you farewelled your Mother. Aunty Dulcie was much loved by our family. So many fond memories of Sunday afternoon visits at Moonlight or Maitland. Lovely service to celebrate her life and loves.
