Gwendoline PARSONS Obituary

Mary was an active and valued member of Graduate Women Manawatu (formerly Federation of Graduate Women Manawatu Branch) for many years, serving on the committee as well as being a trustee on the GWM Trust Board (academic regalia hire). Mary was always calm and polite. She listened to discussions carefully and provided wise counsel, displaying great integrity. She was very supportive of other members, especially those in leadership positions. She and I also enjoyed talking about the joys of being geography teachers and heads of departments. Mary was a very genuine and empathetic friend.

Sincere sympathy to you and family Graeme.
Mary was a special gentle lady who always added warmth and caring to our meetings and stitching groups.

Many years ago Graham & Michael we were in Woodstock Pl and my 2 boys played with Adam & Michael (Scott& Brad)
Mary and myself & Lyn Wilson were all on the School Committee(Hokowhitu).
We lost touch but Mary was a lovely gentle lady.
You will miss her.
Deepest Sympathy
R.I.P. Mary....
