Daryl John "Daz" GIBBS

Daryl GIBBS Obituary

Tragically missing at sea, on March 10, 2024; aged 45. Loving adored father of Jimmy and Zola, precious son of Harvey and Evelyn, big brother of Kelly, brother- in-law of Al, caring uncle of Taine and Chace. A gentle and loyal mate to so many. We are having a celebration of Daryl's life on Sunday, 7th April, starting with a short karakia at Patea Beach Bourke's Lookout at 12.00pm, followed by the main celebration at Alton Hall at 12.45pm. We would like to thank the hundreds of people that helped in the search for Daryl and the love and support offered to our family in so many different ways. In preference to flowers, please consider a donation to the South Taranaki Coastguard.
