Dear Warner and family. I was so sorry to hear Bev had passed. Although I couldn’t make the trip to Dunedin you were all in my thoughts. My memories of Bev mainly centre around baking! The tins always seemed full whenever we came to Dunedin of very good biscuits and slices etc! I have many recipes Bev handed on to me and still make Malt Buscuit Roll ( here in the North Island called Lolly Cake) and excellent Savoury Pinwheel Scones. I think the Cheese Rolls came through Bev via the Green Island Bowling Club. Once again, much love to you all. Bev, you will be greatly missed. Yvonne

Words can not describe the sadness I feel in writing this, my heart truly breaks. My love to Uncle Warner, Maree, Kerry, Cheryl and all family. I have the most beautiful memories of you all visiting the farm and spending New Years down at Aramoana. The door was always opened for a cup of tea and biscuits and wonderful conversations while enjoying the view of the port. Wonderful celebrations full of love and laughter. Memories I shall always cherish and remember with love and gratitude. All my love Tracey (Sanson)
