Farewell Carol. It was a pleasure working with you in the "Ledger Room" at R & E Tingey. So sorry that I couldn't attend the funeral. With Terry now. R.I.P
Thank you for being a part of my childhood. Summers spent with you and the other Round Table families at Graham's Beach eating fish head soup, sleeping on a saggy matteress and showering in a bucket to save tank water awesome of my favourite memories and you were a large part of that. You were a treasure. xx
So sorry to hear of Carols passing. She was a great lady and we had so much fun at Round Table camping weekends and also other Round Table functions. Sorry we can't be at the service RIP Carol.
Dear Mum, You worked and you gave and you worked and you gave, until you had nothing left, even then you kept giving. - I only wish that you had come to understand your inherent value, your value for just being Carol. Loved as you are, for who you are. - I wish you could accept comfort and support, the way you comforted and supported so many others through your life. - I wish you could have given yourself permission to just be and to enjoy the people around you, those who always loved you very much. Instead, you sacrificed yourself to the very end to protect those who needed you to continue to give to them. You buried your needs, nodded your head and signed away your opportunity for the care you needed to get strong again after Dad passed away. We all have choices. I'm so sorry you could not give yourself the permission to own your place in the world. To stand up for yourself, and to learn to enjoy life. I love you Mum and miss you dearly. Maree
