A tribute to three special Wellingtonians

Reporter Community News

Simon Woolf has posted a series of photos as a tribute to Shirley Martin, Neil Gray and his mother Inge Woolf.

"I wish to pay tribute today to three remarkable Wellingtonians who passed away in the past few days. Shirley Martin, Neil Gray, and my mother, Inge Woolf were inspirational wonderful Wellingtonians.
Wellington Free Ambulance, wouldn't be the strong, vibrant paramedic service that it is today, without Shirley. She also supported so many other Wellington causes too.
Neil Gray also had huge strengths within our community, and his contribution to The Arts, The Law and Charities cannot be under estimated.
My mother, Inge Woolf, was also a proud Wellingtonian, who contributed greatly to charities, Photography, Arthritis NZ and The Holocaust Centre of New Zealand.
All three, were wise, warm and wonderful people, who gave of themselves generously, and especially in their care of people, and for our city.
Shirley, Neil and Inge, all knew each other, respected each other, and had similar values and high standards. They will all be so missed.
Today Wellington has turned on a spectacular day to honour them.
These photos were taken at places so special to my mother."
