Tributes

Remembering "Aunty Shirley" on this Daffodil Day. I have fond memories of always being welcomed into her home to play - I particularly enjoyed the spider sodas! Shirley, you inspired me to play netball as my first netball coach - a sport I continued to play for 40 years! We will always remember you as kind and thoughtful. You were a friend of mum's for over 50 years, and she will certainly miss you. Condolences to Ray, Johanna, Fiona and families. Rest peacefully The Fay family x

Grandma, We will all love and miss you dearly. Thank you for all the fun memories. Thank you for welcoming Charlotte & William into our family. You were the most loving, kind and caring Grandma ever! Don´t worry we will look after Grandad now. Give all our family members in heaven a big cuddle. I know your mum and dad would have been waiting for you. I will miss you forever. Thank you for teaching me how to bake and how to sew. Thanks for all our adventures into town to go shopping. We will all miss you so much. Rest easy now, Grandma. I am glad you´re pain free. I hope you´re drinking all the champagne and biscuits Jenna Brien
