To Mike and Leanne and other members of the family our sincere condolences at this time. Helen and I knew John and Elaine through their involvement with the Canterbury Rhododendron Society. They were both on the Committee with us back in the 80s and John was our Treasurer for a period during a time when I was secretary. It was a great social organisation and we all had a lot of fun at meetings or on the many garden trips that we organised.
Our thoughts have been with you.
