To Gordie, Pauline, Lindy and all the clan,

So very sorry to learn of Vi's passing. Such a lovely and kind lady who was always pleased to see you and have a catchup on what was happening in your life. Her and Gordie were neighbours and very good life-long friends with Mum and Dad Coster (George and Connie) from the time they arrived in Waitara and over time became friends with all of our family. May the many memories of the good times you all spent together help you through this sad time. Rest in love Vi. You are sorely missed. Arohanui.

To Gordon, and family. On behalf of the Begg family. It is with great sadness I write this. Violet was a lovely quiet spoken lady, always friendly and pleased to see you. I loved catching up with Gordan and Violet at Nancy and Bill's. Gordon take care. We are all thinking of you at this time.
