Really sad. I had many happy times with both Jim and Helen as kid growing up and also being able to call in and have a great laugh over a cup of tea when passing through Kaikoura. My deepest sympathy to all of the family. Love Kathleen

So sorry to hear of your loss.I knew your dad since the early 1940"s when he was on the farm on Grange Road. I have many wonderful memories of the times I had with the Morton family and was great friends with Jimmy's sister Jeanie. My love and sympathy goes to you, the family. Warm regards Ann Empson.
