Unmarked graves at Taradale cemetery

Denise from Marewa

I tried to do this last year and someone suggested Richard Dampney has a daughter living in Napier. In order to get these soldier's a marker for their graves, I need to hear from family. Please ask them to message me or email napierwargraves@gmail.com.
Seeking family for the following soldiers buried at Taradale (Napier) cemetery and don't have a headstone. It may be possible to get them one if no-one comes forward but we must first check there is no-one who may wish to object.

Richard Henry Dampney WW2 578787 died 20 August 1990
George Bernard Timlin WW1 64387 died 18 August 1921
John Morrison MacConnell WW2 281537 died 5 September 1998

Lost Secateurs

Pip from Pirimai

Stupidly, I drove off this morning with my Secateurs on the roof of my car. Drove from Arthur Hobson Ave, down Trinity Cres into Downing Ave then up Taradle Rd into the Napier CBD! By chance has anyone picked them up? They have red or orangy-red handles (Can't exactly remember the colour!)
