  3. Katie & Millie
    Sending lots of hugs and love to you both as you farewell your dear mum today. She was indeed a powerhouse and we are all better for having known her and her enthusiasm for life and social justice.
    Her door was always open - including to our Lizzie - and for that we were always grateful.
    Know that you have the love and support of so many people...
    Condolences to Jez, Kane and all the delightful offspring as well. Tell the stories. Live the stories. Add your own.
    Much love from Trish ( & Bill)

  7. To Dear Bronwyn

  8. Bronwyn thank you for teaching me about plants, gardening and chickens! We were only acquaintances but sometimes people don’t realise the good effect they have on other people’s lives who they dont get to know closely. So your impact on celebrating and working in nature was far reaching. You were also a supporter of the arts in Wyndham with me which I appreciated so much. Best wishes to your family and other loved ones during this difficult time.
