To the family of Colleen and Roger our thoughts are with you all at this time, Colleen and Roger were our very first neighbours when we moved to Blenheim and we felt so very fortunate to be living next to them. We also have shared many cups of tea, jokes and laughs together, both very special people and have left us with wonderful memories to treasure forever
