After a long and courageous battle, our cherished Noeleen has finally gone to her forever resting place, free from pain and suffering. She left this earth peacefully on Sunday, April 6, 2025, surrounded by family. Dearly loved partner of Ken Thompson, and devoted wife of the late Don Davies (Parker). Treasured mother and mother-in-law of Brent and Theresa, Mel and Rob, and Rodney and Tania. Adored Nanna of Carly, Katherine, Quinn, Jonté, and Lucy. Great-grandmother of Eve, and Riley.  A fun loving, dear and special friend to many. While our hearts mourn the loss, we take comfort in knowing she is now at peace. Her song has ended, but the melody plays on. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Chatswood Retirement Village for their care and compassion. Messages may be addressed to: The family of the late Noeleen Davies, c-/ PO Box 39001, Christchurch 8545.
