I think this is his wife’s obit. Just this year. Her death reg gives dob of 16 Sept 1941
Funeral directors should have a contact for family.

If you want to be sure you can purchase a print out of her death reg from NZ BDM. Marginally cheaper, has the most info, and comes via email

This is the only marriage in Lochee for a David Kemp McDonald I can see (too late?). Elizabeth Mary must have been married before?
