This page is in memory of Adam Buckingham. Please support Joanne, Ellie & Clay who unfortunately lost their husband/dad on February 1st 2015

Auckland

Adam Buckingham was a well known man for his work in early childhood as well as in the community - along with being a wonderful father/ husband to his children and wife. Check out http://www.trash2treasure.co.nz/ to learn more about this incredibly talented man, who has been taken too soon.

Adam was diagnosed with cancer (metastatic melanoma) in October 2014, and unfortunately passed away on February 1st 2015.

This page is to help raise funds for the beautiful family he has left behind. His wife Joanne, who has been amazing through this journey they have shared, and also their two children - Ellie (5) and Clay (10).

Please donate whatever you can as a sign of your support. This is a great way to show you are thinking of them as they grieve at this difficult time...and hopefully the money raised will help them financially.

Adam's wife is a good friend of mine, and I want to do all I can to show support and help out as they go through this tough journey together. They are loved by so many and hopefully this will be a way for people to also show that they love them too, and make them realize that they are not alone.

I am so sorry to hear about Adam. I studied with him at AUT and we both graduated at the same time. He was a lovely guy with a big passion for teaching children.

Every time I go to Kindy I see evidence of Adam's play items made from trash. Thank you Adam for making us think about our environment.
