Tributes

Gee, you are going to be missed more than you could ever know. You are an exceptional person, a beacon of light for us to follow. Our hearts broke when we heard you had passed and got your wings and broke more thinking of how big a gap you have left in all our lives - especially Robyyn & Livvie's. Robyn and Liv, our hearts go out to you as you start the most difficult part of this journey, living without Gee. But know that there are many, like us that are sending you lots of love and hugs and will always be with you on this part of your journey. Toodleoo Gee ... Fly High xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

What an unbelievably touching story and legacy you have left on this planet and etched into the hearts of others Georgie. Your smile alone could move mountains. Every single person to be graced by your presence should count themselves lucky, as I do. Thank you for being you, for sharing yourself with the world. May your strong wings carry you to wherever it is you wish to rest. LOVE, LIGHT, AND STRENGTH XXX

Gee, thank you for being you. For being so fiercely loving. So endlessly filled with kindness. And so wonderfully full of sass. Getting to love you, Robbie and Liv will forever be a privilege. I have so many memories with you I hold dear. Sepsis visits, dogs, plotting to get each other out of hospital, finally getting diagnoses and being able to laugh at anything. Thank you for live streaming your final party. Sending the gentlest aroha and awhi to you all. You will be missed but never forgotten. Part of you will live on in the trauma informed care, and humanity, I educate new hospital staff on. All my love, Rachael xx

We met Georgie at Starship when my son Luca was having cancer treatment. Georgie, Liv and Robyn were an amazing trio who I remember to be always gracious, caring and smiling and a huge inspiration. Georgie was the sweetest most lovely girl then and had grown to be a hugely inspiring young woman for so many people. My son Luca is also a twin, his brother is Devon so I completely understand the bond that twins have. My sons fight with each other but still love one another, so we understand the huge gap that Liv will feel and also Robyn. We had stayed in touch over the ten years since then and my heart and thoughts are with you

We love you, you awesome adventurer, amazing artist, master chef, cheeky fun lady, beach lover, card shark, advocate, fighter! Being invited into your wonderful world and amazing family has been an incredible blessing for both of us. You have been a family for us two traveling weirdos and we are so grateful. We will miss you terribly Gee but you will live on with us in your beautiful artwork, your amazing humor and refusal to back down whatever challenge you faced. Because of what you taught us we know we need not fear illness and death but we can love and thrive through it all.

Dearest Robyn and Livvy, My heart breaks with you. What an amazing, strong, creative young lady Georgie is - I absolutely love her "sleeping bag". Robyn - so much respect for your strength and your fight for your daughter - you are an amazing mother. Liv - who could wish for a better sister that was there throughout. I am so blessed to have known Georgia and watch her grow up. I will never forget her cheeky smile. Sorry I can't be there in person today, Greg will give you a hug from me xox

Mandy

Sending lots of love to Liv and Robyn during this time. What a beautiful soul Gee was and the love she would spread. I remember the early days of berry picking with Liv and Gee during the school holidays during our intermediate days. We would bond and exchange stories of being twins and even appeared in the paper as babies together in our prams showing off how cool it truly is to be a twin. Though we have not connected much since leaving high school, I have followed her on social media and have watched her journey and fight with such positive energy and always with that better smile. May you be pain free now and rest knowing that you have left your wonderful mark on the world. Until we met again xx

Kathryn Bees

Since the day I first got to know Robyn and heard about those lovely girls. I have followed and heard about your struggle and also about all the things you done for your fellow person. You had been an extraordinary person and I'm happy to get to know you and seen what you has become and accomplished.. you are and will be an inspiration for others. If we all only did half of what you been doing and giving others the world would been a better place to live on. Heaven has become z better place now when you lighten it up and spread happines all around. Fly high fly strong. You the brightest star in sky.

Greger Svärd

My thoughts are wirh you all. Gee was such a battler. Xarvia met Gee through Health School and then I met the family through ward 10 at the hospital. We had lots of laughs and that is how I will remember her. Fly high. Xx

Anya Chisholm

I was blessed through the power of social media to connect with you, many years ago we bonded over a topic in my blog and from there I was fortunate enough to be part of your journey. You educated me, made me laugh, made me cry and inspired me by your strength, your humility despite your own pain and struggles. You still wanted to help others even in your own battle. Gee sweetheart you will live on fiercely in the hearts of everyone blessed enough to have been connected to you. Thank you for bringing light into my life and for your friendship and years of inspiration. I will miss your beautiful smile and our banter but most of all I will miss seeing your adventures and the spirit of you taking life into your own hands and making the most of it. Sweet girl, I hope you’re dancing in heaven and resting easy now. To your amazing and very strong Mumma Robbie, you are the epitome of strength and what being a mother is all about, selfless and unconditional love. Liv, my heart goes out to you, such an incredible bond you had, it was beautiful. All the love and light to the entire family. Rest in peace Gee xxx

Natalie Cozens

Gee, it was an absolute honour to meet you and to know you. Thank you for shining your light through-out all of our lives. It will shine on forever. Love you.

Ana May

Meeting such a young who was so courageous, life fighting focused, whose simply beautiful and peaceful soul always shone through. Gee’s attitude to her disease never defined her, but was part of her journey. For someone so tiny she always greeted you with a huge smile and loved the hugs. A heart of a lion, and loving soul. Gee was so blessed to have Robyn and Liv as her most arduous advocates, endless love and unconditional never resting support. Truly such a blessing to have shared some of your journey along the way Gee. Lay down easy sweetheart 🩵🕊️

Annitta

We feel privileged to have had you touch our lives Gee. What an amazing human you were. To Robyn and Liv, much love and hugs to you.
