It is with great sadness that I learned today of your passing. I will miss your stories, supportive nature, caring, bubbly personality and energy in the pool. Lovely memories remain of your teaching days of my daughters at Kamahi School. You will be sorely missed Gladys. My deepest sympathy to all of your family at this sad time.

Dear Sue, It's really a very sad moment to lose the most passionate and supportive person, the mother, very sorry for your big loss, I didn't know your mom, but I'm very much sure that she was a great decent lady that raised a strong positive woman like yourself. My deep condolences to you and your family, this is the life.

Oh Mrs Lumsden. You were the best 1st teacher anyone could have. You have always been remembered with fond memories and your kind nature. You made a real impression on me at the prime age of 5 and I have been forever thankful. You were a true blessing. You will be sadly missed. RIP and thank you
