Very sorry for your loss Heather was a lovely lady

To Tania, Susan, Julie and families.
Heather crossed our paths in so many ways. She was one very special lady. Always smiling, enthusiastic and willing. She took on the many curved balls life threw at her and saw them as a challenges.
The three beautiful girls she leaves behind are testament to the energy Heather gave. The initial three ponies we saw them mounted on. Chicly, Dinky and Honey. All carefully chosen to suit their riders.
Makahu Pony Club, the opportunity to be at one with nature, often seeing adversity provide adventure. Heather was at the helm.
The many training days for young riders at you home at Toko. Providing hospitality and organisation to just make things happen- despite the farm chores facing you at the end of the day.
Your willingness to go into bat for what you saw as right.
Our times with you and Michael at home here in Mimi, at Wai -iti,and at Maida Vail.
On the Dance Floor with sequence dancers, you and Michael were the ones to follow.
Then visiting you at Jean Sandel the smile still constantly present.
Heather you were and still are an inspiration.
Love to you girls.
Thank you for the wonderful memories.
Graeme and Josie Reid and girls

To Julie, Karl and family,
Heather was a lovely, gentle soul, cherish the many great memories you have,
Thinking of you all,
