Layk Scott Scowen

November 11, 2022

Unexpectedly and tragically taken from us on Friday 11th November 2022.  Cherished son of Wendy and Jason, much-loved grandson of Val, Ann and the late Rex, Walter and Dorothy, and Tony and Lorraine.  Loved nephew of Darren, Emma, Craig, Jan and her Canadian family, Karen and Bob, Andrew and Annie and all his amazing cousins.  Special brother-cousin of Paddy. Beloved of Sue and Mark, Amber. Phoenix, and Lakota, Steve and Parisa, Fiona and Claudia, and Shirley.  Deeply missed by his fur buddies.  Fondly remembered by all his friends, far too many to mention by name. To leave a message or to watch the livestream of the service, go to  Layk’s tribute page at www.thompsonfd.co.nz.

A service to celebrate Layk’s life will be held at Westland High School Hall on Saturday, November 19, commencing at 11.00 am.  Private cremation to follow. The family invites everyone to join us for refreshments at the conclusion of the service.  Funeral service livestream link https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83363743508?pwd=RlRLazJ0WkpWV2ttZ0t1VFhMOUUwdz09
