An icon of our town, IHC, Smith Street and the Presbyterian Church....that was Mrs Kirkwood. As a neighbour on Farmers Road I have only lovely memories of Mrs Kirkwood and especially admired her beautifully kept home.

It is so sad to hear of Gwenda's passing. Gwen did soo much for our whanau especially for Henry Ross. She was a stalwart for the IHC, empowering and casting a bright light of the abilities of the disabled in our community. She will be sorely missed. Ma te atua hei manaaki.
