SHELDON, Bruce

29/10/1941 – 24/01/2026
It is with great sadness that we advise that our amazing husband, dad, grandad and great grandad Bruce passed away on Saturday 24/01/2026 after a short illness.   

Much loved husband of Lynne of 64 years (Motueka) and darling brother of Francis Nelson, (Greymouth).  Loving father and father-in-law of Lianne and Chris, Kent and Faye, Kelly and Craig and the late Nicky. 

Special grandad of Kieran, Rebecca and Jordan, Georgia, Alex and Jonathan, Shannon and Jesse.   Great grandad of Hadley, Blaire, Regan and Brooklyn, Charlie, Grayson and Asher and loved uncle of all his nieces and nephews. 

Thank you for the support from the Access carers that made it possible for Dad to stay at home as long as he did and the staff at Jack Inglis Friendship Hospital for their support and care in his last few weeks.   

As per Bruce’s wishes, a private family service has been held.  Messages to Lynnette Sheldon. 40B Teece Drive, Motueka 7120.
