Thinking of you all during this time. Maureen was a truly beautiful and kind lady. I was involved with Maureen and Murray at Marigolds in Merivale more than 30 years ago and she was so generous with guiding me in my first years of business. Love Felicity

I have fond memories of Maureen when she used to appear on CTV promoting Pataka and her lovely Christmas shop. It worked - I´ve been a customer ever since.
Condolences to the family. Christchurch has lost one of its legends.
