Dear Pete and family, Im sorry you have lost your petal, Pete. I know how much you will miss her. Aunty Adele was always beautiful. She was always interested in what we had been up too since we had seen her last. And we loved seeing the pair of you turn up in your bus for a visit with us, on your adventures around the islands, or heading off to the gold guitars in Gore. BBrrrrrr usually a chilly weekend and it was great seeing you parked up next to the Gore A and P showgrounds, but always nice and cosy in your bus and always with your special doggy companion. You had so many adventures. Adele will be having a lovely catch up with our and her whanau in heaven. Mum, Gran, Aunty Olive, Aunty Desiree, Kerry and Beffy and all the others.....will certainly have the good china out and lots to catch up on!!! Ka kite Pete, Aroha nui from Jules , Dig and family. xxxxx

Our wonderful neighbours for 10 years and in all that time Adele always knew the best days to get the washing dry, as soon as I heard her washing trolley head to her clothesline with Poppy chasing the wheels of it I knew we would both get the washing dry! We had great chats over the fence and always enjoyed hearing where they were heading off to next in the bus. Pete and Adele were a fantastic couple who brightened up everyone's day. I have fond memories of Adele and Pete. from Liz and the late Richard Olsen
