  16. Thinking of Thelma, Helen, Karen and families.
    I have the fondest memories of Mr Woods as my Grade 6 teacher and a wonderful Principal. I especially loved reconnecting with him as an adult and still calling him “Mr Woods” regardless of him insisting he be called Peter. I’ll miss seeing you in the cafes and on the rail trail Mr Woods!

  24. Sincere condolences to Thellie, Karen, Jasmine and family. I was hoping to view on live stream, but doesn;t look like that’s an option. Please accept apologies for being unable to attend and pay respects in person. He was a lovely man, excellent grandfather (Pop) and supportive and accepting defacto father in law. Will be remembered fondly and I thank him (and Thellie) for their support for Jasmine and Karen over the years among the rest of the family. He was a devoted family man for sure.
