Bob and family, so sorry to hear of Wendy's sudden death. Wendy and I worked together in the BNZ last century (early 70's). Her endless patience at the BNZ with my late father (Ivan from Cust) in the last few years of his life, epitomised Wendy's character and her wonderful customer service for the Rangiora community. kia kaha and arohanui Peter & Kathy
