To Our Christine, I am crushed and saddened to hear of your passing. You have been my sister my whole life, we shared so much of our lives together; us 3 girls shared a bedroom for years, you took Denise and I to our first rock concert Rod Stewart at Western Springs, there were driving lessons, pubs and parties and our children grew up together. You were there for me on many occasions. You are my sister, so many memories, tears and laughter. You may be gone but never forgotten. Much, much love Linda

My heart breaks for Jill and the kids on the sudden loss of a truly beautiful human. Chris was a super proud wife, mum and grandma and loved and protected her people her fiercely. Chris was like my 'work mum' and made a huge impact on my life. Chris supported me through work, pregnancy, and becoming a mum.
Thank you Chris for you love, support, and loyalty. You will be forever remembered and missed ❤
Hayley Carlisle, Auckland
I am incredibly sorry to hear this news. Chris was a great worker, colleague, and all round person. I will miss her, her good humour, and her professionalism. All my thoughts are with her family. Chris was a strength in our office and she leaves a gap that will be very hard to fill.
Michael Wilson, Invercargill
Chris,
it won't seem the same not seeing you at work. I will miss the banter. You always looked out for others and just quietly came alongside anyone to ask if they were okay. You were a true gem. Huge condolences and thoughts to your family. Regards Wendy
Wendy Fraser, Invercargill
Thank you for your hard work and dedication to us and our family, you always had a genuine care for us. Rest easy beautiful lady x

Hey bud, I’m still struggling to understand and believe you are no longer here on earth but I can hear your laugh and see your grin. You were my “CYF wife” who I loved working with. You were always humble, calm and a colleague I could always rely on. We did some bloody long hours after 5 which our “CYF widows” always seemed to support or put up with. More importantly I was privileged and honoured that we became friends, the four of us spent some great times together with plenty of laughs and we also shared some pretty shitty times, Chris you were solid. My heart aches for you Jill and all the kids.. Now Chris it’s time to give the coffee cup and buying glam shoes a rest. It is so hard to say goodbye but I have you always in my heart and memories. Until another time and place we meet again see ya bud xxx
