life celebration service
My wonderful mother Anne Crook (nee Hewkin) passed away last week on Tuesday 9th February.
We are having a service at the Redemption Point Church on Napier Rd (the old red cross hall behind the kindy) in Havelock Nth on Saturday 20th Feb at 11am.
Her funeral notice was in the Hawkes Bay today on Saturday 13th February. I am posting this here in case there are those that don't get the paper or are not on her Facebook page.
To those who knew her, come and help us celebrate this positive and caring person and the full life she had.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
