To the Nicolau whānau from one of the Lynch tribe, arohanui ki a koutou on the loss of your lovely Margaret. My Aunty Margaret was a treasured elder to me, especially during my university days in Dunedin. She and Jimmy put up with my random visits and cheeky questions, always with humour and encouragement. I always felt welcome in their home. I will remember her bright smile, interesting and interested conversation, and graceful style. I will always treasure her acceptance of me as I was, as I am, without judgement - as only a wonderful aunt can. Thank you Margaret. Love to all, Pip.
