|
Resolution number WHK/2017/29 MOVED by Chairperson P Walden, seconded by Deputy Chairperson C Handley: That the Waiheke Local Board: a) acknowledge the passing of Maynie Thompson, a very special local resident. She was a true inspiration and hero to both New Zealand and Waiheke. Not only did she make a stand for what she believed in, she walked the distance of true commitment to creating a safer New Zealand for generations to come. Her involvement in anti-nuclear and peace movements including the Greenham Common Peace Camp, and the Great Peace March for Nuclear Disarmament in the United States, has made her an inspiration, not only to the local community but also all over the world. She will be missed. Our thoughts are with her family and close friends at this difficult time. |
