    We remember Mary with affection, give thanks for her life, involvement in the former Eastville Anglican Church, within the Parish of Maldon, and for our association and friendship with Mary and Colin before we left the Diocese of Bendigo to work in Tasmania. Mary and Colin were a fine Christian couple.
    We send our condolences to Gayle, Elaine and John.
    Bishop Ron and Lisbeth Stone.

  2. Kath and Peter Lakey. says:

    Mary was a much-respected lady in district where she spent most of her life and we always found her to be a very quiet and easy-going person. She worked hard doing her bit as part of her partnership on the farm with Colin, and Pete always remembers the amazing meals she prepared when he was a shearer there. Mary was always quick to put up her hand to assist with any local events, doing it quietly with a minimum of fuss. One of those significant local identities who will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
    Our most sincere sympathies to all the family.
    Kath and Peter Lakey.
