HARDING, Mary Elizabeth:
Died peacefully at home on Thursday, January 12, 2022, in her 94th year. Dearly loved wife of Patrick "Paddy" (deceased), much loved mother and mother-in-law of Jeremy and Imogen, Philip and Kay, Edwina and Ian (deceased), and Emma and Ian; adored grandmother of Cressida, Court, Antigone, James, Luke, Anna, Te Huia, George, and Claudia; great-grandmother of James, Isaac, Holly, Jack, and Amelia; loved sister of Len, Wal, Dick, and Jim (all deceased). We couldn't have kept Mum at home with us without Robyn Georgieff, who has led the care team since 2020 with loving attention to every single detail that mattered. We also particularly want to thank Dr William Gordon-Wright for his considerate and attentive care. Many thanks also to the kind and wise carers who supported us towards the end. Messages may be addressed to the family of the late Mary Harding, c/- PO Box 10345, Christchurch 8145. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Christchurch City Mission would be appreciated and may be made online at bit.ly/meharding1201 or at the service.
