Rex WHITING Obituary

WHITING, Rex (Gnomey):
With immeasurable gratitude, we wish to thank the hundreds of people who came to farewell our precious, twinkly-eyed and so fiercely loved hero. Many of you travelled for many hours to be with us and we acknowledge that with utmost appreciation. We wish to make special mention of Don and Jayne from St John, Dr Janine and staff of the AAU at Ashburton Hospital, Paul (Pup) Chamberlain and Roger, Linda and Rochelle from Paterson's Funeral Services. Thank you is owed to a large number of people for so many reasons, but with great respect, we would ask that you accept these words as acknowledgement of your caring. The acts of kindness, compassion and support have been overwhelming.
It's the cold, hard reality that we have to accept his passing, but we will never forget the life we had with him, the love we will always have for him and he for us.
- Moyra, Bronnie, Campbell and families.
