My deepest sympathy to you Alban, for the loss of Julie. My thoughts are with you and family at this sad time.
Dear Alban, Scott & Tracey, Troy and Sally, and Julies’s adoring four grandchildren. We were so saddened to hear of Julie’s passing. You have been mum and dads (late Bruce and Julie Parlanes) life long friends for over 60 years and it was a friendship they so deeply cherished. The celebrations over such time have been many, and the memories made, so very precious. Mum would get super excited about her dinner catchups with you both, Julie always cooked the most amazing meals, but it was hanging with old mates that she treasured most. Julie was such an active go-getter, a gorgeous wife, mum, Gran and friend who will be missed terribly. Big hugs to you all as you navigate through this painful time and know that we are thinking of you all. Love Shellie, Mark, Stella, Corbin and Charlize Ebert
