Tansy🐕 and I loved visiting Barbara … that cheeky smile, and we would always have a laugh.
And the last time I saw her, she was happily playing Bingo! (who would have guessed???!)
I was totally shocked at her passing.
Sending my sincere condolences and love to Leanne and all Barbara’s family.
Amanda Turner 🙏

Mum,
Growing Up you looked after us, supported us in everything we did, even in our adult lives.
Then came the time when it was our turn to look after you, when needed.
We will miss taking you to your appointments, shopping and just having lunch.
We appreciate every thing you have done for us love you and miss you.
R.I.P. ❤️🙏
Raymond
Aunty Jean,
We are so happy that we got to know you…What’s the saying ‘Better late than never’.
You were funny, cheeky and mischievous, all at once!
You hold a very special place in our hearts.
We will miss you but the memories are there forever.

Dear Mum
I have known you for 52 years and we had some challenges early in the early years but we got through them and we’ve become good friends since.
I was very privileged to help you when you weren’t well and I stayed with you.
We had some good times through that, we had lots of laughter over the years.
I will miss our trips to Campbells Creek to see you.
Ray and I will miss out lunches we used to have and I definitely will miss our chats.
We had a lovely chat the Friday before you passed away and I’m so pleased we did..
When Ray and I lost Michael you were there for me I really appreciate your talks.
I know you really understood how I was feeling … I thank you so much.
Love Karen (daughter in law xx ❤️)
Those we love don’t go away
They walk beside us every day
Unseen, unheard, but always near
Still loved, still missed, and very dear
Your Brother Michael
And Sister-In-Law to Vicky (Deceased)
