Sweet are our memories of dear May. We grew up as girls together in Sth Australia. We shared fellowship together until Peter & May made the move across the ditch. We each had one sister. We both had two children a son & daughter. We have a granddaughter & family in Waitara which meant a visit to see them & again had fellowship with May & Peter after 42 years. We chatted from where we left off. Some friends we never forget and May was one of those. Christine & Andrew we know & feel your loss. Thinking of you all as you lay Mum to rest with Dad today. A generation now gone. Condolences to each one with heartfelt love from us both. Shirley & Robin. 🩷💙

I first May when I was having a few under wear issues while at work and loading May into the van for our usual Monday morning drive. May and I shared massive amounts of laughter that day. Working with May over the next two years would become one of the highlights of my life. May loved her bingo and hated exercise classes but would attend anyway. May was a shinning star with a bright loving smile. Sending all my love to her family

I’m sorry I won’t be able to attend May’s service - she was a very special lady who always had a kind word.
