Darren Francis William Hughes
Vale Darren Hughes (His own written words)…
“26.10.1983 to 22.2.2022
Beloved son to John and Terri, brother to Tim and uncle to Matilda.
A confused soul who wished only happiness for people, but often failed miserably to prove it.
No flowers by request. For those who feel inclined. Darren has requested that all donations be directed to a fund for Matilda Hughes so that he may provide for her in death what he couldn’t do in life. Details to follow. Do not cry for what is no more, celebrate the best of what was. Less tears, more beers.”
Funeral Notice
Private serviceIn accordance with family wishes a private service will be held and Darren will be laid to rest at Manangatang Cemetery.
We wish to encourage you to express your sympathies and condolences to the family via a tribute on this announcement which the family are able to read, reflect and treasure.
