Memories for Nan

Your voice, your words, your photographs — gathered for her service, and kept for her whānau always.

Photographs and video

For the photo tribute at her service, and for her whānau to keep.

Not sure what to say? A few gentle ideas…

Anything you give is enough. If you record your voice, please say your name at the beginning so her whānau know who is speaking.

  • A favourite memory you shared with her
  • Something you always wanted to thank her for
  • A funny or warm story that makes you smile when you think of her
  • What you loved most about her
  • What she taught you, or what you will carry from her
  • A message for her whānau

An example, if it helps:

“Hi, it’s Sarah, her granddaughter. I’ve been thinking about all the times we sat in the garden and she told me stories about when she was young. I always felt so safe and so loved with her. Thank you for every cuddle, every laugh, and for being such a gentle and strong woman. Rest easy, Nan. You are so deeply loved.”

Who you are

Everything gathered here goes to her whānau. Voice messages will be played at her service, written messages collected into a memory book, and the photographs and video used for the tribute on the day.
