I am so sad to lose my dear friend Tilly. She was a true Netballer and dear friend. I loved her for herself. Much love to Tilly's family and friends. Joan Harnett-Kindley

Condolences to the Whanau of Tilly from the Easterbrook family of Whangarei. Tilly was a respected and admired Silver Fern team mate of our wife and mum Sandra Easterbrook née James who passed away 18 months ago. Mum talked very fondly often of Tilly and their great times in the 1967 world champ team. Dad thoroughly enjoyed talking to Tilly at netball reunions too and also spoke highly of her. Another great Silver Fern.

To Tilly's Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Tilly's passing. I had the pleasure of working with Tilly at the Blenheim Police Station back in the 1980's and I was the other non-sworn staff member at the time. Tilly was great to work with and I had a lot of respect for her. My husband knew her also and we send our deepest sympathy to you all.
