Bereavements
We regretfully announce the passing of the following NZMCA members. Our sincere condolences go to their families and friends at this time.
CHILES, Wilbur #20740 Wellington It is with sadness we acknowledge the passing of Wilbur; husband of Judy, very proud Dad to a blended family, beloved grandad and great grandad. Wilbur and Judy began their motorhome journey with the NZMCA nearly 20 years ago and enjoyed running the odd ‘never to be adventures. and was ready to help at the drop of a hat. Wilbur was well known in speedway as King running in his veins. Wilbur and Judy made some lovely friends during their membership and enjoyed travelling to places they would not have seen otherwise. He passed away surrounded by his family on the 18th of January and will be sadly missed. Diane & Graham Robertson #21398
