Peacefully on Thursday 17 August 2017 at Christchurch Hospital. Loved boyfriend and soulmate of Marjorie. Loved father and father-in-law of Rhonda and Leigh, and Tena and Aaron. Dearly loved grandad of Jazmyn, Alexander (AJ), and Caleb. Loved brother of Kevin, Adrienne, Dick, Pamela, Jennifer, Wayne, and the late Vern.
“Some love lasts a lifetime, true love lasts forever.
We’ll see you again one day, whitebaiting and tending to the grapevines in heaven.”
Thanks to Marie and Mitch of EastCare Health for their care over the years and the staff at Christchurch Hospital. Messages to the family c/o PO Box 10345, Christchurch 8145. In lieu of flowers, donations to St John would be appreciated and may be made at the service. Denis is now resting at home for anyone who wishes to pay their respects. A celebration of Denis’ life will be held in the Ferry Park Chapel at 297 Ferry Road on Tuesday August 22 at 1pm. Private cremation thereafter.
