After the unexpected loss of our dear friend Joanne, we are raising funds to help support her husband Adam and their 2 little girls

Auckland

After the unexpected and sudden loss of one of our very best friends, Joanne, on the morning of the 25th of May, we are raising funds to help support her husband Adam and their two young daughters to help ease the financial burden and stresses that will come along in the months ahead.

Joanne was a wife, mother, daughter and a friend to many. She left behind a husband she adored and two daughters under the age of 3 who she doted on.

Joanne - you, with your bright smile and contagious laugh, will be greatly missed. You touched so many lives, both in your own community and as a nurse.

You are truly one of a kind... and we were honoured and blessed to have known you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this extremely hard time.

Please note there has been another page set up by another group of friends for Joanne's family here: https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/gonebutnotforgottenjoannemcmanus

Monique Pearce's involvement (page creator)

We are involved because Joanne and Adam are two of our very best friends... and this is something small we can do to help ease the burden on Adam and the girls.

Auckland Service held today to farewell Joanne  28 May 2016

It was with a heavy heart and a deep heart breaking sadness that we farewelled our darling friend Joanne at a beautiful service held today. Surrounded by her family and friends, Joanne had a truly lovely send off.

With tributes given, photos and memories shared, laughter and many many tears... Joanne was lovingly remembered as the devoted wife, mum, daughter, sister, grand-daughter, niece, aunty and dedicated friend that she was.

Joanne has now headed up north with her family and friends for a final service and burial at her family marae.

Thankyou to everyone who has donated to Adam and the girls so far.

The family have been blown away by the generosity and love of family, friends and strangers alike.

So thankyou.

Your continued support of the family is greatly appreciated and will enable them to focus on each other as they face the journey ahead.

God bless.
