Mieke HESSON Obituary

30.12.1958 - 22.06.2025

In Loving Memory of Mieke Hesson

After a long and courageous battle with cancer, Mieke passed away peacefully in her sleep, a gentle smile on her face, comforted by the thought of being reunited with dearly missed family and friends. Beloved and devoted wife of Paul Hesson. Cherished mother and mother-in-law of Emily and Killian, Mike and Charmaine, and the late Karl and Simone. Adored Oma of Caywood, Jarreau, Holly, Charlotte, Olympia, Orla, Darcie, and Tommy. Proud great-grandmother of Bailey. Deeply loved by her brothers, sister, in-laws, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews, and her many treasured friends. The family would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to the staff at Hospice Invercargill and Vickery Court for their outstanding care and compassion during Mieke's final days. A celebration of Mieke's life will be held at the Riversdale Community Centre at 1.00pm on Friday, June 27, followed by a committal at the Riversdale Cemetery. Messages and tributes for Mieke can be shared on her tribute page at www.distinctfunerals.co.nz, where a livestream link to her service can be found.

Deepest sympathy to the Mieke´s family. I was so sorry to read of Mieke´s passing. I grew up at the other end of Kent Street Riversdale from Mieke. Mieke was a year older than me but my first day going to high school in Gore on the bus Mieke kindly walked into school with me and showed me were I needed to be. I am so sorry I could not attend her service today. I have watched it on line and the service was a true reflection of the lady Mieke was. RIP Mieke
