Thank you Brenda ❤️
I’ll be watching Spicks and Specks and I might even make a veggie stack for you tonight Didie. I always say hello from the car when I drive past your house from the highway.
Thankyou for loving Buddy when I couldn’t, and me. You were SO consistently kind, caring, and patient, a true representation of Jesus love for us. Thankyou for being you, and sharing a piece of you with me. Thinking of you Keith and family. Much love.
Thank you Amy – Mum is at peace now. Think of her often – she loved a quiz show and she loved Buddy so much. Take care ❤️
First Hugs to you all. Di was a very big part of this world for so many. I first met Di in grade 1. Di played the music at my wedding. Always a great achiever and cheerful friend and advisor to all. God Bless you all🩷
Thank you Gayle – you and Mum had so many special memories in Mt Isa – she treasured those times xx ❤️
I met Diane through working at Blue Care Community & then a few times while enjoying a non work time get together.
I’m shocked & saddened to read Di has gone on before us.
While only having met up with Di a few times, her beautiful caring, giving, happy & generous nature was immediately learned & one could be assured she was always “on the same page”.
Blessings to her husband & family in their grief journey.
I trust she will be served by a gold edged cup n saucer in heaven.
Thank you Hannah – Mum loved being part of the Bluecare team. Dad loved your message when I read it to him today ❤️
Diane you are gone but memory of you still lives. Kids plates, green frogs, coffee mugs a lot of your work adores my home. Thanks for all the great time we shared on the nut farm.
Than you Sava ❤️
Deepest condolences, Fiona, and also to Keith and Damien. Dianne & I spoke about two years ago and talked about catching up, but sadly it didn’t happen. You are all in my thoughts. Lin ❤️
