• Notes

  DOB: 12/06/1952. Born: Helensville Lived first 3 yrs at Kumeu on fathers kiwi fruit farm then moved to Orewa where I went to school until aged 16. Left school and moved into Auckland to complete my enrolled nursing certificate at Cornwall Hospital. Broken half way through to travel to join my family in England where we lived and travelled for 9mths. On return finished my nursing certificate and worked at North Shore hospital. Married Paul Craggs on February 5th 1972. Paul was in the navy for 10yrs. He then left to join Air New Zealand where he worked in communications. He transferred to the IT Department after 10 yrs then into human resources. Paul took voluntary redundancy after working for ANZ for 20 yrs. We had two daughters Anjannette born 1974 and Vanessa born 1977. Returned to Nursing in 1985 part time at Waitakere geriatric hospital. Transferred to the Blood donor Centre in 1990. After two years there went district nursing until 1997 when Paul and I went to England to live and work. On our return nine months later, we sold our house in Massey and moved into a new house in Palm Heights. Paul worked as a recruitment consultant and I worked as a co-ordinator for an agency dealing in home care. After a year I joined Southern Cross medical Care Society where I worked firstly as a claims assessor then a corporate administrator for three years. Paul moved into a position as an HR Manager for another company and after a couple of years started his own recruitment and consulting company. After leaving Southern Cross I started a tour company which I worked in for a couple of years then went full time as an office manager in Paul?s recruitment company where I am still working after five years. Our daughter Vanessa?s husband Matt joined the company four years ago and is now one of two directors of our company PMSL. After five years living in Palm Heights we sold and moved a few streets away to a larger new house where we are still living after four years. We have four grandchildren ? Anjannette has three children and Vanessa has one. My interests are playing netball, fishing dancing and of course my grandchildren.
