My loving Mum (best friend) and Nanny,
With tearful eyes and aching hearts, we mourn the loss of a beautiful soul.
A woman with an abundance of love, warmth and strength.
I know God put His arms around you when He saw you getting tired.
Reunited now with your love Joe, you rest in peace now Mum.
Your memories our keepsake, with which we’ll never part. God has you in His keeping, we have you in our hearts.
Forever loved,
Kristina, Joshua, Patrick, and Madeline.

Mum,
Words can’t express the pain and sorrow we are feeling at the moment. There will be a void in our lives that will never be replaced. You gave us unconditional love, support and guidance and for that we will be forever grateful. We are truly blessed you were Nanny to our daughter, although too short in time, we will cherish memories for eternity and remind Ava of you every day. Until we meet again Mum, you are forever in our hearts.
Reunited with Dad.

Your loving son Jordan, daughter-in-law Leah and granddaughter Ava.

So very missed.

We will miss you dearly but are comforted by the thought you are reunited with Joe.

Ann there is another hole in my heart, you have been my big sister since I was 8 years old. Thank you for all the memories we created and for being there through all my tough times. You were such a wonderful daughter-in-law to Mum and Dad and the greatest joy in Joe’s life.
Ann, from the first day we met we became great mates. I will miss our banter and humour and having Chinese takeaway together.
Our world as we know it, our life as we live it, will no longer be the same without you in it.
We love you.
Rest in peace.
Bet and Stephen xxoo

Zia Annie,
We both shared a special bond with you.
Thank you for being the best Aunty that anybody could ever ask for. You were the light in the room, the one that brought joy to our hearts. We will always cherish the memories and you will be deeply missed.
“You had ears that listened, arms that hugged and held, a love that was never ending, and a heart that was made of gold.”
We love you
Adriana and Matthew XOXO
