Florence HAYSTON Obituary

Passed peacefully Saturday, 16th August 2025, at Trinity Home and Hospital, Flo laid down her knitting for the last time, aged 84 years. Dearly loved wife of Ray. Cherished mum of Karen (Auckland), Ian & Teresa (Urenui), Vanessa & Brendon Birss (New Plymouth), Mark & Kerry (Hawera), and Denise & Jason Darbyshire (Gold Coast). Beloved Nana to 10 grandchildren and Nana Flo to 8 great-grandchildren. A gifted seamstress, Florence stitched beauty into every thread of her life. Her careful hands mended and created, not just in fabric, but in the hearts of those she loved. Each stitch a memory, each pattern a story. A service to celebrate Florence's life will be held at Tairoa Lodge, Puawai Street, Hāwera, on Thursday, 21st August 2025 at 1.00pm, followed by a private committal the following day. A livestream of Flo's service will be available on her tribute page at www.hardingsfunerals.co.nz/tributes

"Her legacy is now woven into the fabric of her family, never to be unpicked."
