Tony CAIRNS Obituary

Suddenly at his home on March 2, 2026, aged 57 years. Dearly loved husband and best friend of Lois, very much loved son of Daryl MacDonald (deceased), and Julia (and her husband Malcolm). Tony was a big man, with the biggest heart. His sense of humour and his cooking will be sorely missed by his friends and family - including his beloved cat Socrates. Our sincere thanks to our amazing family GP, and to the paramedics, for their care. In lieu of flowers, donations to SPCA, or the Heart Foundation would be appreciated, and may be made online at spca.nz, or at heartfoundation.org.nz. Messages may be addressed to: The family of the late Tony Cairns, c/- PO Box, 39001, Christchurch 8545. At Tony's request, there will be no funeral service.
