I had the absolute pleasure of working with Maria for over 10 years. I will always remember her walking past my desk every morning and without fail she would smile, wave and say “Good morning my dear”. I have some lovely memories of her.
Maria was a kind, gentle and lady who had a cheeky sense of humour too! I will miss her & feel lucky to have known her.
Sympathy to her family & loved ones
Vale Maria

Dear Auntie,
Thank you for being there when we needed you. I am so happy that my children experienced your kindness, humour and love.
I hope you also felt out love for you.

On behalf of all ex staff Decipha Imaging, Mailroom, IT and Front Office in Abbotsford, we mourn the loss of Maria. Maria primarily worked in the imaging team validating confidential information on behalf of clients. She was an excellent team player, highly professional as well as being a friend to everyone. She had a wonderful sense of humour and a beautiful person inside and out. We thank Maria for her contribution to now sadly ceased business, our thoughts are with her family, friends, and colleagues from her entire career. May she rest in God’s care.

It is hard to find the words to express the shock of your passing. Seeing you so active and full of life in our group chat just days ago makes this even harder to believe.
While our paths didn't cross often in person over the last 50 years, your presence in my life was profound. You were my most generous supporter and top benefactor during my many years of charity cycling. Because of your kind heart, so many lives were touched and improved by the projects you helped me raise funds for.
I will be forever in your debt for your kindness and your spirit. We, your school friends, will miss you dearly.
You helped me go the distance for so many years; may you now rest in eternal peace. Your kindness will never be forgotten.

Maria, you were such a wonderful person and work colleague, we would catch walk together from work to the station with our other friend, we shared similar interests in music, crochet, knitting and we supported one another. At Decipha we were one big family and you trained me in assisting with your clients. You even got to meet some of the local four legged friends too and my husband briefly at Flinders Street Station, condolences to your family, friends and ex Decipha Alumni. In God’s care.
