Age Vallinga - In Memoriam. Leave a Message and Donate to Women's Refuge in Age's Memory

Waikato

Age (Alan) Vallinga died unexpectedly on 26 April 2021 in his home, with the love of his life Rosalind nearby. Adored by many, Age lived his life with passion and pizzaz. He loved deeply. He was charming, lighting up a room with his loud laugh. He was erudite and well read. He was tenacious, determined to do what needed to be done. Born into a wonderful family in the Netherlands, he followed his heart to New Zealand where he raised his family with total devotion.

In lieu of flowers, Age and his family would love it if donations were made to the NZ Women's Refuge in support of their vision for all women and children in Aotearoa New Zealand to live free from domestic and family violence. This is a charity Age supported much of his life.

Please leave your messages and memories in below. We will cherish them.

All donations to this page are received directly by Women's Refuge. If you cannot afford to donate, please feel comfortable donating just $1 to leave a message - we would love to hear from you.

Age Vallinga is my Darling Dad. Our hearts are breaking as we say goodbye.
