 I have very fond memories of Aunty Nova and Uncle Allan welcoming me and mum and dad (Kay and Allan)
 into their home for family visits when we moved to Christchurch from Hamilton and moved just around the corner. 
Uncle Allan would always have a stash of Cadbury chocolate in the fridge and slip me some after 
summonsing me to the kitchen. Aunty Nova gave me such lovely cuddles and kisses and I felt so lucky to have such loving Aunts and Uncles. May she rest in peace and I send my love to you all from Australia.
