We go back a long way..... From riding horses with you around Manaia, the Hawera Pony club, flatting together at Walters Road, Mt Eden. We were at your wedding in Manaia and visited you at Bexley Station. When you flew to Ian's funeral in the US, by coincidence, were on the same flight as my mother-in-law who was visiting us in Toronto. Where did those years ago? RIP.

Deepest sympathies to the Gibbons and Buist families our thoughts are with you all. Helen was a flower girl for our mum and dad (Grace and George Barlow) on their wedding day.

Helen was always there for me. From Bexley to Berkeley. From Oakura to Oakland. She was at Ian and my wedding. From Mania, New Zealand to Mountain View, California. She turned Ian's office into a nursery when Christina was born, and was there when Christina got married. My life was a happier place having her as my sister in law, and knowing Debbie, Amanda and Jo as nieces.

Helen was a playmate many years ago in Manaia. It was her that told me that there was no Santa Clause as I was proudly showing her my second hand bike I had got for Xmas. I was in awe of her lovely Dolls House. Many happy memories. Warm sympathy to Helen's family. Jennifer Greenhill née Whalen.
