So very sorry to hear that Elsie has passed away. I remember being at Rex and Elsies wedding nearly 40 years ago. I have very fond memories of how happy they made each other. It was a delight to see Uncle Rex so incredibly happy because of Aunty Elsie, she brought so much joy in to his life. I remember the beautiful holidays they went on overseas with my dad Bing Powley. Sending so much love to you all. Warm love Karen Sadler (nee Powley), Palmerston North
