Unfortunately Paula was not able to travel to NZ for the funeral, so we streamed it live to her. The borders open on the 19th April between the 2 countries, so she is booked to come on the 1st May. It was a lovely funeral, and we made it a celebration of his life, with loads of photos and a story about his life.
He made about 9 or 10 trips to Canada, maybe more over the last 20 years, he found great joy traveling solo canoeing in the Yukon, he last trip was only 5 years ago, but was getting difficult for him as his memory was starting to fail then.
I certainly think Dad lived a very full life, and I will always remember his can do attitude, nothing phased him.
Take care, Helen
