Maree WILLIAMSON Obituary

The Williamson family are heartbroken to announce the unexpected death of their beautiful Mum and Granny, Maree Williamson, on January 3, 2026. Maree was travelling in Mexico after attending a family wedding. Reunited now with her beloved husband, Neil and survived by her six children : Jerome and Sue, Nicola and Robert, Melanie and Phil, Greg and Helen, Julie and Reuben, and Ri and Tamara: and her 23 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren. Maree was the light in our family which unites us, our brilliant, strong, warm, wise and positive Mum and Granny. We all feel incredibly lost without her. Messages to 119 St Andrews Square, Strowan, Christchurch 8052. Funeral details to be advised at a later date, but will likely be in late January.
