Kathleen was a lovely lady, gracious and smart.
It could not have been an easy task to raise five children who have achieved success in their chosen fields and are just plain, nice people.
Kathleen made us feel very welcome at Kevin and Andrea's wedding. She will be missed by all who knew and loved her.

Kath you were my angel when I first went to boarding school at St Marys in Wellington. You were one of the senior boarders and you were always kind, considerate and thoughtful to the homesick juniors. I always enjoyed our tennis and netball games too. I will always remember you with love, and I enjoyed our few catchups in Levin over the years. My thoughts and prayers are with all the family.
Helen Ryder-Goodman.
