To the Dransfield family.
Our sincere condolences on the passing of David. He was our Mum, Jeanne Malthus' (Thompson) cousin. I remember many days in my youth at your home in Wainuiomata when I used to visit your family with Aunty Dulcie. David was always very interesting to talk to. Our thoughts are with you at this sad time. Kind regards, Diana Malthus and her brother Paul Malthus.

David was a highly regarded fellow member of both St.Peter's and St.Stephen's church during our time in Wainuiomata. He was thoughtful, and fun, with a fund of anecdotes, ready wit and ideas. Our thoughts and prayers are with all his family as they remember both David and Jocelyn, and work through the details of their lives in the next weeks and months.
Love, Pat and Barry Lerwill
