DRYSDALE, Sallyona and Robert

It is with saddened hearts we wish to inform everyone of the passing of both our parents. 

Sallyona (Sally) Drysdale née Lewis. 

Sunrise:  Summer 1954 – Sunset:  Summer 2025.

Loved wife, mum, nan and big nan.

Robert (Bob) Burnley Drysdale

Sunrise:  Summer 1951 – Sunset Autumn 2026

Loved husband, dad, papa and big pa.

It was mum and dad’s wishes that their funerals be private.  They are both at peace, lying in Te Reinga Urupa together forever.  We would like to thank whanau and friends for the koha, kai, awhi and aroha given.

WHAANGA, Haileen Harmony 

24 January 2026 – 25 March 2026 

Deeply loved and adored daughter of Chris Whaanga and Charlee-May Rangiwai, precious little taonga to “Nanny Wairoa” Margaret Hauwai, and cherished baby sister to her eight big brothers. From the moment you were here, you filled our world with a love so pure and unconditional. Though your time in our arms was far too short, you will remain in our hearts forever.

Our baby will lie at 12 Sydney Street, from Friday 27/3 at 3pm where the funeral service will be held on Monday 30th March at 10am, followed by burial at Nuhaka Public Cemetery.

Sleep peacefully, our precious darling. Rest eternally with your papa and cousins. 

Rest eternally with Papa Terrence and your cousins.
