Dear Francey
So sad to hear about this. It was lovely meeting you and reminiscing about school days with Gareth when Jude and I came over around Christmas 2006. A talented cricketer back in the day, he always seemed to be one of those naturally gifted people who could pick up a sport and be good at it straightaway!
Thinking of you
Mark and Jude

So sorry for your loss. I´m married to Gareth´s cousin, Mark, and we met you both when we were in NZ over Christmas in 2006. Such a shock to hear of Gareth´s death. Sending love.

Dear Francey
Our family was very sad to hear about Gareth's passing. It's been a long time since we saw him & you (when me, Dan & our 2 girls visited in 2008) - but fond memories of that & when we were all kids. Thinking of you.
