WILLIAMS, Alan Leslie

On March 3, 2021 Alan passed away peacefully at The Margaret Wilson Home, Timaru, aged 92 years. He was looked after brilliantly by the wonderful team there. The family would like to announce a posthumous gold medal for Alan’s services to his community and family since 1928. Alan was Dawn’s dearly loved husband for 70 years 4 months. A loved and cherished dad to Grant and Felicity, Brent and Jacqui, Jenny and Geoff, Chris and Debbie. Much loved Grandad to Clemency and Yann, Samuel and Coco, Adrian, Tim and Ben, Jono and Amanda, and Alie, Olivia, Harrison, and Alicia. Loved Great Grandad to Pierre, Gabriel and Lily, Hinoki and Keyaki. Dad’s life touched so many more, too many to mention here. Please all have a toast (strong cup of tea) to Alan. For those of you who knew Alan, he loved a chat, always had a smile on his face, but did not like a fuss, so at his request, a private service will be held later in the year. All messages to Dawn, who we expect will be receiving a card from the Queen in the years to come. Thanks to Betts Funeral Services for dealing with the formalities. Dawn Williams, C/- Margaret Wilson Home, 6a Orbell Street, Timaru.
