Remembering Kirsa Jensen
Hi there, With spring flowers coming up, I was reminded that it is 35 years ago (on the 1st of September) that our school friend Kirsa did not come home from riding her horse along the Marine Parade in Napier. No words can properly express, how broken our hearts were and how there is still a hole in our hearts and a lump in our throats to think of her and desperately wish she had come home that day. Sending love and sympathy to Mr Jensen, Mrs Jensen and Michael wherever they happen to be. With love From Rhonda (nee Sellar) on behalf of other students at Colenso High School in 1983. We will remember Kirsa.
