You will always stay in our thoughts and memories. I don't know anyone that fought so hard against cancer. We love and will miss you dearly. 💕 RIP, till we meet again, Fly high on your broom, 🧹💕 Love you always, now and forever.

To our beautiful Ruby Booby ~ how do we even begin to say goodbye. Your smile, your laugh, your potty mouth! Your courage, your humour, your strength, your friendship… we will cherish, love and remember them all. You taught us all so much, but you have left us with so much more. You have left us with a lifetime of memories, a friendship that can never be replicated nor replaced, you have left us with your legacy ~ but most of all you have left an enormous ache in our hearts . That ache only comes from loving you so much. Thank you for your life that you so generously shared with so many, thank you for your friendship which was such a privilege to have had and most of all thank you for you babe. We will love and remember you always. Love Di & Rossco xo

Dear Kurt and the amazing family of the Gorgeous Kathlyn. Thinking of you all in this time of loss.

The bonds of your love for one another are so very special; and the spirit and life of Kathlyn is in you all, her loving family. So many wonderful times shared and cherished memories. Sending our love and support Karen & Graeme Lee and family.

Rest in peace my darling little sister. We never got to have a last dance but when we meet again we will.

You walked into our lives over 28 years ago - from off the bat i knew we would become best mates. How many stories, secrets and shit do we know and have shared. You are the worst person to tell a secret too LOL you are so easy to get info out of - despite your best attempts to be that loyal person LOL - I want to thank you for being such a beautiful mate - for always giving us a story or a huge laugh annually and sometimes biannually - you are the funniest friend and will be so very very missed - we will make sure Kurt has all the support, I will check in with Holly and Daniel regularly till they tell me to fuck off LOL - not sure i will adopt that phone your phone to remind you to clean above the stove or change the fucken curtains thing - these are the little things i will so miss - valhala will have to be frequented by your kids and those beautiful grandys so the walls of Valhala are reminded of the Raddock Energy - I know you'll be hovering on that broom keeping a check on all of us. Tomorrow you will receive the most colourful send off at your request - with all my heart buddy - please give my dad a good lift me off the ground hug if you happen to fly into him LOL Always and Forever - the track is cut - love you - Barn
